Galileo (1975) - Joseph Losey (1)

This bio-film is based on Bertold Brecht's play about Galileo Galilei, 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. (this is part 1 out of 10)

Sorry, I can't, this is how the file is - what you can do is check if the volume of your PC is at the maximum, and also the Youtube volume...I watched the film with my earplugs on, and it worked perfectly :)

A little on the soft side yes, I remember the audio on my DVD being quite a bit more audible. But still thank u for taking the time to post this. I'm sure many a youtuber will appreciate it.
