	Joey Curtis - Definition, explanation
		Joey Curtis (1925 – May 13, 2004) was a former professional boxer, referee and business owner who was licensed to officiate bouts in Las Vegas, Nevada.
		Curtis is best remembered, however, for two specific fights: On June 26, 1981, at Las Vegas, Lupe Pintor was defending his WBC world Bantamweight championship against Jovito Rengifo, who was attempting to become Peru's first world boxing champion.
		Fearful of another tragedy, Curtis stopped the fight to prevent Weaver from further punishment (On May 20, 1983, Dokes and Weaver held a rematch, with Dokes retaining the title with a fifteen round tie).

	On the Media
		JOEY CURTIS: He, Leone -- the main objective right now, is I want you guys just hanging out in front of that theater, revving them cars up, okay, for everybody coming into the theater.
		JOEY CURTIS: I just want to thank the Sundance Film Festival for giving us this great forum, the greatest in the world, to present the world premiere of Quattro Noza, and I'd like to dedicate this first world premiere screening to my mother in heaven.
		JOEY CURTIS: We went out in a really documentary approach, and some of the scenes that happened like the fight between Leone and Swineball, that wasn't scripted -- that just happened, and we were there.

	SPORTS PEOPLE; Referee's Rationale - New York Times
		Joey Curtis is the referee who stopped the World Boxing Association's heavyweight title fight between Mike Weaver and Michael Dokes at 63 seconds of the first round Dec. 10 -and who could not help hearing the ringside cries of ''fix, fix, fix'' that accompanied his decision.
		Two weeks later, Curtis now says that he spent several sleepless nights after that Las Vegas bout but that he is convinced he was right when he awarded the fight to Dokes, making him the new champion.
		In retrospect, Curtis says, a quick end to the bout was inevitable after Dokes's early knockdown of Weaver.

	Las Vegas SUN: Longtime referee Curtis dies at 79
		It did not matter to Curtis, an ex-fighter, that Rengifo was ahead on two of the three judges' cards or that he likely would never get another world title shot.
		"Joey was a great guy -- a fun guy to be around -- and a competent referee," said Marc Ratner, executive director of the Nevada Athletic Commission, which licensed Curtis as a referee in Nevada from 1971 through 1993.
		Curtis is survived by his wife of 57 years, Mary Curtis of Las Vegas; a daughter, Laura Curtis-Latrenta of Harrington Park, N.J.; a son-in-law, Richard Latrenta, also of Harrington Park; and two grandchildren, Emily and Bobby Latrenta.

	Movie Habit: Interview with Quattro Noza Cast and Crew
		University of Colorado at Boulder’s Film Studies Program alumni Joey Curtis, Derek Cianfrance, and Robert Beaumont (who stars in the film as Quattro) were in attendance, along with a posse of Quattro Noza street racers who had Park City police jumping into action as the hot rodders peeled out of parking lots.
		As for the filmmakers, they are no strangers to the festival circuit; Joey Curtis and Derek Cianfrance had teamed up before on Brother Tied, a modern-day Cain and Abel story that played at the 1998 Sundance Film Festival and went on to travel to 30 other film festivals worldwide and win six prestigious awards.
		Joey would set up the action and put the actual “bank robbers” in the cars and set up situations where things would happen and just send the cars out loose into the real world.

		Joey Curtis, the director, apparently had a supreme vision to make a "real" movie about the lives of people involved in the underground world of street racing.
		It's amazing that Curtis was able to get what he got on such a small budget and with the cooperation of so many non actors.
		You can barely hear the dialogue (if Curtis had paid more attention to the sound design and, you know, making sure we can understand what it is the characters are saying) and the quick cut editing and stylized neon cuts are just, well, boring.

	Variety.com - Reviews - Quattro Noza
		Joey Curtis' directorial debut takes a highly impressionistic look at the world of illegal street racing in Southern California, shot through with an elemental "Romeo and Juliet" format that triggers an unnecessarily nihilistic ending.
		Due to digital image manipulation that pushes the picture to the boundary between narrative and avant-garde filmmaking, slightly overlong effort is full of striking, fresh visual interludes showing cars, speed and the sensations surrounding the scene.
		Such a sequence comes early in the film, and the way Curtis shoots and cuts makes it thrilling, even though the viewer has no vested interested in any of the drivers, who are a bunch of unintroduced young kids.

	Brother's class sends best wishes 12/22/04
		LINCOLN PARK — Joey Curtis may only be 10 years old, but he's captured the true meaning of giving to a T. Upset that his older brother, Steven, who's stationed in Iraq, wouldn't be home for Christmas, Joey began thinking of ways he could bring the holidays to him.
		And from that idea was born a project that got Joey's fifth-grade class at Mixter Elementary School involved.
		Joey and his mom, Patty, went to area stores and purchased boxes and boxes of goodies, including beef jerky, peanuts and chocolate candy.

		Curtis is currently in New York City, splicing together the footage.
		We saw some of the raw footage and there is an authenticity to the way he photographed the cars, either with simple suction cup camera-mounts or by holding the camera out the door of a speeding car.

		Streets of Legend is an exhilarating, character-driven exploration of love and betrayal set against the illegal and multiethnic car-racing subculture of Southern California.
		Director Joey Curtis paints a classical and yet urgently contemporary urban myth of youth rivalry, love and war.
		Driving this narrative with fantastic imagery, Curtis elevates ordinary teenage experiences of friendship and romance to the stuff of folklore.

		The budding romance can only end badly when Chato escapes prison to be with her.
		No, it’s not a tale for which one needs nearly two hours to tell, but interspersed are several aptly named drag races, completely devoid of dramatic substance, that are seemingly inserted into the script solely to show off helmer Joey Curtis’ experiments with high-definition video.
		To his credit, the cars are creatively shot -- with the camera positioned inside, alongside and on the hood of the vehicles -- to great effect, and techniques such as slow motion, split screen, distorted picture, blurred headlights, superimpositions, negative images and intentional flaws (the flare from reflected light), are visually engaging.

	Quattro Noza - Friday October 3 2003 - Mill Valley Film Festival
		Set in Southern California's illegal street-racing scene, Joey Curtis' debut feature is a visual stunner about the love triangle between streetwise player Chato, sensitive street racer Derek and young beauty Noza.
		Recasting classic tragedy in contemporary terms, Curtis audaciously blends Shakespearean melodrama with Latino culture and 2 Fast 2 Furious.
		With an urgency that feels raw and real, Quattro Noza transforms the streets of Los Angeles into a swirling kaleidoscope of brake lights, fireworks and pure emotion and energy.

		Imagine Vin Diesel and Paul Walker's street-racing saga "The Fast and the Furious" transformed into a lyrical, stylized romantic tragedy and one would have some idea of what Joey Curtis' unsparing yet beguiling "Streets of Legend" is like.
		Of course, street racing is steeped in danger and folly, but Curtis, who was a street racer, and his virtuoso cinematographer, Derek Cianfrance, know how to exude the intoxicating allure it presents to young people, crossing ethnic and socioeconomic lines in its appeal.
		"Streets of Legend," which is dedicated to the memory of experimental filmmaker Stan Brakhage, who taught Curtis at the University of Colorado, is a terrific calling card for the young director.

		Shot documentary-style, with highly mobile cameras, fast hand-held filming, and lightning-speed cutting, Streets of Legend challenges The Fast and the Furious and Torque as the most cutthroat, edge-of-your-seat racing film.
		Director Joey Curtisdirected the motion picture illegally, using authentic drag racers as his actors, and thus had to discreetly film sub-rasa.
		Starring Robert Beaumont, Brihannia Hernandez, Victor Larios and Greg Leone, the central story involves two southern California teens who plunge deeply into their community's multi-ethnic street racing subculture and ultimately attempt to break out of the "crash and burn lifestyle" by competing against each other via drag racing championships.
