José Crespo (1900–1997) was a Spanish film actor. During the late 1920s and 1930s he worked in Hollywood, often as a leading man in Spanish-language versions of studio hits. Crespo was thought to resemble John Gilbert by MGM bosses, and was given roles performed by the American in the English versions. The two men became friends. Once the fashion for making separate Spanish versions was brought to an end by the rise of dubbing, Crespo moved to Mexico to work. He later returned to his native Spain.
