Spain released, PAL/Region 2 DVD: LANGUAGES: English ( Dolby Digital Stereo ), Spanish ( Dolby Digital Stereo ), Spanish ( Subtitles ), SPECIAL FEATURES: Cast/Crew Interview(s), Interactive Menu, Photo Gallery, Scene Access, Trailer(s), SYNOPSIS: This bio-pic is about Galileo, the 17th century Italian who laid the foundations of modern science. Galileo made himself one of the world's first telescopes and discovered the moons of Jupiter. He supported Copernicus' theory that the Earth revolved around the Sun. This brought him in conflict with the Catholic Church. By threatening him with torture, the Church forced him to recant his views in front of a tribunal, and sentenced him to house arrest. However, Galileo's trials and theories inspired others like Newton and Kepler to prove that the Earth was not the centre of the Universe. Some years ago, the Pope accepted that Earth does revolve around the Sun and issued a rare apology for what the Church had done to Galileo, i.e., the Catholic Church recanted! ...Galileo (1975) ( Galileo Galilei )

Bertolt Brecht's Galileo [DVD] [1975] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC]
Bertolt Brecht's Galileo [DVD] [1975] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC]This is a film which has a wider appeal than is initially obvious from the title. In my opinion it would appeal to someone who is either interested in Galileo's life, his discoveries, plays in general, literature Topol etc. Or, try it & be suprised-I was. If for any reason you find it difficult or, if you want to look further, get the book, too. The acting is supoerb.If you like what you see, then follow up with,Collected Plays: "Life of Galileo", "Mother Courage and Her Children" Vol 5 (Methuen World Classics)Georg W. Pabst - The Threepenny Opera [1931] [DVD]by Albert Préjean.
