GALILEO: ON THE SHOULDERS OF GIANTS

Kids enjoyed learning about Galileo's experiments to track the movement of stars and planets. Appreciated the realistic sets and costumes. "It showed us how everybody can think alike and still be wrong, as well as how society punishes creative ideas.

Very informative and stimulating. Opens further inquiry into Galileo's theories about planetary motion. Excellent production quality, great settings, good acting. Offers insight on social conditions and issues.

Galileo uncovers mysteries of the universe while dealing with financial problems, an unemployed brother and a jealous rival. He finds unlikely support from a Medici son. The pair struggles for intellectual freedom while they invent the telescope.
