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 into 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 center of the Universe. 521 8 $a Rated PG. 538 $a DVD. 600 10 $a Galilei, Galileo, $d 1564-1642. $v Drama. 650 0 $a DVD. 650 0 $a DVDs. 650 0 $a Astronomy $x History. $v Drama. 650 0 $a Astronomers $z Italy $v Drama. 650 0 $a Mathematicians $z Italy $v Drama. 650 0 $a Feature films. 650 0 $a Biographical films. 650 0 $a Historical films. 700 1 $a Losey, Joseph. 700 1 $a Bray, Barbara. 700 1 $a Landau, Ely. 700 1 $a Topol, $d 1935- 700 1 $a Fox, Edward, $d 1937- 700 1 $a Gielgud, John, $c Sir, $d 1904- 700 1 $a Conti, Tom. 700 1 $a Brown, Georgia. 700 1 $a Blakely, Colin. 700 1 $a Brecht, Bertolt, $d 1898-1956. $t Leben des Galilei. $l English. 710 2 $a American Film Theatre. 710 2 $a Kino International Corporation. 939 $a 5297691 941 $a 1 945 $a dvv 952 $l PNAX964 $d 20090701080000.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A56885EA2B0811DE986A0F08A8D7520AInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
