Can Jason\u2019s brother Damien\u00a0overcome this tragedy, along with discouraging defeats of his own, to win in front of a global audience? THE CUP, directed by\u00a0Simon Wincer (LONESOME DOVE, COMANCHE MOON, PHAR LAP), follows one of the most inspirational stories in sports history.\u00a0Brendan Gleeson heads a talented cast, but the real star here is the phenomenal footage of horses at work and play. Santa\u00a0Fe\u2019s Lance Hool produced this \ufb01lm, arriving in the U.S. after a strong run in Australia. (Australia, 2012, 106 minutes, 35mm)<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#8220;<em>The Cup<\/em> sustains interest through the smooth efficiency of its storytelling and the engaging performances of its lead players. Latest effort from Simon Wincer \u00a0evinces intelligence and restraint, even during periodic scenes of potent emotional impact, as it respectfully recounts the true-life drama of Aussie jockey Damien Oliver, who rode to victory in the 2002 Melbourne Cup just days after his older brother sustained fatal injuries in a racing accident.&#8221;<\/strong> &#8211; Joe Leydon\u00a0<em>Variety<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/santafefilmfestival.com\/index\/newshonoring-lance-hool-producer-director-actor\/ \">READ 2011 SFFF blogger Joanna Smith&#8217;s post on Lance Hool<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Join us at the Santa Fe premiere of Simon Wincer&#8217;s new film The Cup produced by the 2011 Santa Fe Film Festival&#8217;s \u00a0Honoree and Santa Fe Studios CEO Lance Hool.
