They had one daughter, actress Viridiana Alatriste. He was also married several other times (actresses Ariadne Welter, and Sonia Infante--the latter for 18 years) and had 20 other children most of them in Mexico city and guadalajara) some people say that theres only one son that bears his name.

He began his career producing Luis Buñuel's Viridiana, which starred his then wife, the actress Silvia Pinal. The film, considered one of the greatest in Cinema of Spain, was the first of three films by the trio.

In the eighties, Alatriste was named vice president of the Mexican CANACINE film organization. Alatriste died of pancreatic cancer on 22 July 2006 in Houston, Texas -- some newspaper stories cite 25 July but apparently the news was withheld for several days.
