After the war and Hiroshima, Brecht revised the play to include the problem of the scientist knowing sin. Brecht also began to portray the great physicist as the great proletarian who unwittingly becomes the leader of the masses. Galileo thus turned into a catch all for Brecht's most important thought during the war years. The result is staggering...
Brecht drew his Galileo as a big belching proletarian who would belch even in the Pope's presence. Tony van Bridge seems far too well-mannered with the Establishment, but among his scientist friends he back-slaps sufficiently. He brings extreme power to the role, perhaps too much.

If she were sexier, argued the newspaper's columnist, with something less than perfect logic, "she would have been forgotten long ago." Still, remembering her performances in An American in Paris and Lili, Moscow's Louella sighed approvingly: "She is a fine actress, always believable, and an excellent...
