Its success spawned \u003ci\u003eThe Holy Mountain\u003c\/i\u003e, through interventions by John Lennon and Allen Klein. After a scandalous release and a 16-month midnight career, \u003ci\u003eThe Holy Mountain\u003c\/i\u003e was relegated to the underground world of fan bootlegs for over thirty years until its limited restored release in 2007. This short study reveals how \u003ci\u003eThe Holy Mountain\u003c\/i\u003e, a poetic, hilarious, and anarchist cult film by an international auteur, anchored in post-1968 critiques, is - at the same time - an archaeological capsule of the counterculture movement, a timely subversion of mystical tenets, and one of the most mysterious films in the history of world cinema.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlessandra Santos is assistant professor at the University of British Columbia.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Wallflower Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50923932352786,"sku":"9780231182317","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_b5ea5c22-ce76-44af-8cc7-4f1d1373f904.jpg?v=1738965503","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/the-holy-mountain-9780231182317","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
