'Crossover Dreams' is a 1985 film directed by Leon Ichaso. The film follows salsa singer Rudy Veloz (played by musician Rubn Blades) on his rise to fame as he tries to break into the mainstream music scene. The film mostly takes place in Spanish Harlem, New York City. This was the first major feature film role for Rubn Blades.

Roger Ebert praised Blades' performance: "The story isn't new, but it sure does wear well. Maybe that's because Blades is such an engaging performer, playing a character who is earnest and sincere when he needs to be, but who always maintains a veil over his deepest secrets."[https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/crossover-dreams-1985] Roger Ebert, "Crossover Dreams," October 7, 1985
