Arthur Duarte (1895–1982) was a Portuguese actor, screenwriter, production designer and film director.

Originally beginning his career in cinema as an actor, he played several small roles in Germany, France, Switzerland and Austria.[1]

He made his feature film debut with the 1938 adaptation of Júlio Dinis's novel, Os Fidalgos da Casa Mourisca. However, his most significant achievements came in the comedy genre, with notable works such as O Leão da Estrela and O Costa do Castelo.

He was married to actress Teresa Casal, who participated in several of his films.[2] Their marriage ended in separation during the mid-1950s.

Beyond feature films, his body of work also included short films, documentaries, and advertising productions.
