Sixty Glorious Years is an exercise in the creation of iconography, both for Victoria and its star, Anna Neagle (who subsequently became known as 'Regal Neagle'). Just as Elizabeth I commissioned artists to create flattering iconic images for public consumption, so this film performs a similar function, for Neagle is more beautiful than the real life Victoria. Controversial events (such as the 'Irish problem') are omitted and unpleasant aspects of Victoria's character (her petulance, arrogance, favouritism and 'right to privilege') are glossed over as endearing little 'whims'. Albert acts as a moderating influence when she goes too far.
The film followed a year after the highly successful Victoria the Great (d. Herbert Wilcox, 1937). Again the screenplay is by Miles Malleson and Robert Vansittart, and many of the supporting cast (the cream of acting talent of period) repeat their roles, this time for the colour cameras. This was the first full length Technicolor film of cinematographer Freddie Young, who captures the spectacle of royal weddings, grand balls and opulent interiors, with scenes actually filmed at royal palaces. Vivid battle scenes, set in Alexander Korda's empire territory (Sevastopol and the Sudan), rival those in The Four Feathers (d. Zoltan Korda 1939).
The title music sets the tone: a regal choir sings over a shot of the crown. Elgar's 1901 'Pomp and Circumstance' march is heard during the diamond jubilee celebrations and, as Victoria's coffin lies in state, the film concludes with Anthony Collins' stately music accompanied by the text of Rudyard Kipling's 'Lest we forget'. Combined with the emotional appeal of scenes of Victoria connecting with her 'ordinary folk', this is stirring stuff.
The film connects with contemporary events of 1938. The release of two celebratory royal films was intended to boost public affection for the monarchy in the wake of Edward VIII's abdication. Anglo-German relations were another touchy subject. With another war on the horizon, influential voices wanted appeasement, and the film could be seen to fit that agenda. Victoria herself was of mainly German descent, nicknamed 'the grandmother of Europe', while Albert is a 'good German', charmingly played by Anton Walbrook as a cultured, decent man.
Sixty Glorious Years now seems unduly formal and reverential. Had movies existed during Victoria's reign (they only emerged at the end) this might have been the kind of film produced. Unlike Mrs Brown (d. John Madden, 1997), it is all so very 'Victorian'.

开始觉得很好笑很傻逼酒店隔离哪有那么糟 越看到公司不惜一切手段只管完成电影越他妈笑不出来 尤其是制片人说了“the show must go on”这句熟悉的话之后 感觉跟2020年学校对待我们的态度差不多吧 太真实 ptsd了 制片公司=我校 本来是因为Pedro看的 看完只想说James McAvoy can chase and tackle me any day🥵🥵
大家都多少有点子不太正常。
什么年代了，还有从里面打不开的门，房子是老，但好歹换把双向的锁呀，每次开门用块砖头挡门也不嫌麻烦。阿美利卡也真是能将就。
是属于比较好看的 从头到尾没什么bug 直接进入主题 没有什么冗长的画面 不功不过 很喜欢这种类型 给个四星鼓励一下
小孩写的还不错，让人信服，其他基本拉，女主还是金球小姐……好吧。
烂得奇奇怪怪的一部片子，至少是给这个疫情时代留下了一些东西。
场景和故事都很简单，为母则刚，有勇气逃离渣男还是要点赞。被渣男锁在储物室，女儿和幼儿在外面，还被恋童癖闯进家，险象环生。
Sometimes it can be good, but for this one it just tells the truth that shooting what behind an awful movie is still an awful movie.
- 观感差了点，困了半天的房间一个大洞都砸不出来，非得等到危机出现了才开始拼命逃生，真是有够墨迹的。
每隔一年半载总会有一部小成本小矫情密闭空间里面充斥着为何不食肉糜的他国人民的人生感悟的这样一部片子，就那么一跳一跳的蹦到你面前，然后你没忍住看了。你以为会有惊喜？不不不，只有编剧从陈年老剧本扒出来换成标准套路圈你点钱。
我喜欢！套娃式荒诞太欢乐了！人在现实和虚构中的处境是荒诞而尴尬的；电影在现实和虚构中的处境也是荒诞而尴尬的。而作为观众的我们也正处于同样的荒诞。中段叙事拖沓，口感松散，如果从头到尾保持口感紧实就很好。
最后面的打斗还是挺热血的，但是爆豪和轰焦冻的对手实在是太普通，没什么感觉，打斗逻辑也比较离谱。剧场版不是很有诚意，挺没劲的
一群明星拍的网大，前期还行，越到后面越不堪，闹剧都比这破玩意有逻辑
同在一个猪圈下，有的猪居高临下，挑堆毛病，看个乐呵，有的猪不敢深思，不敢代入，不敢多说，还有些猪，眼里从来就没有光。
被隔离过的应该都能relate。另外，Pedro Pascal到底欠Netflix多少钱哈哈哈哈哈哈哈
调侃，胡闹，戏谑，特殊时期给大家带来欢乐。
怎么说呢，确实有一两个好笑的地方，但是拼凑痕迹有点明显，像是玩得更花的地方卫视春晚
冗长，tiktok到底给了你们多少钱…为星云多加一颗星
这电影真像这场疫情一样，没完没了，怎么撑到两个小时的？
好了好了，爹咪别秀了。
