DVD Talk review of 'The Holy Mountain' (Blu-ray)
I read Ian Jane's DVD review of The Holy Mountain at http://www.dvdtalk.com/reviews/read.php?ID=47930 and I want to comment on that tarot short. Jodorowsky is in a way correct that the tarot "is not a way of looking into the future" However like many of those promoting tarot reading, he fails to mention that the tarot was really intended for nothing more than a kind of trick taking game similar to spades or bridge. I enjoyed the The Holy Mountain film as well as El Topo, but viewers should be cautioned that the tarot short presents a one sided view of tarot as a means of spiritual guidance. Tarot is also a family of fun card games played in European countries like France, Italy and Switzerland and the time is overdue for English and Spanish speakers to be aware of it.
