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'.

这部剧本蛮神的，后面不用说，男主妈妈在厨房那段，我已经猜到什么事情，还有第四我也不知道剧本会写到怎样，我也蛮期待一下
这系列越来越烂没有办法，就记得结尾爬悬崖一只羊
全程快进看完 卧槽 为了颜值和狗血都看不下去了 这是暮光之城版的绯闻少女吗！！居然还拍第四部
床戏都变难看了，最后被父母爱情那段气到了🙏🏻（我跟你有过一段情男主是我俩的儿子所以我们在你结婚前夜且我老婆还怀孕的时候打炮完全是正当并可以理解的！你们这些不明内情的人都不许凶我！
看了三部，来豆瓣看到底讲了啥。🤣男主很像孙杨，说起来这部好几个人我都能对应国内的一些人。怎么还总结出什么四大名场面，我怎么都觉得一般般啊！什么五十度灰，我感觉欧美不都是这个调调。😀很特别吗？不觉得，很颜色吗，我怎么也不觉得。确实挺幼稚的，第二部我就看不下去了，不过我为了那个狗屁名场面又看下去了。哈哈哈哈哈，一切为了打卡
什么狗血剧情，为了男主颜值，我努力，hero你可不能胖哈！
Bgm蛮好听的 加入sex歌单了 Tessa反客为主 Hardin真的好让人心疼 脆弱专一 可狼可奶 心疼 不要再受伤害了 真的只要有爱在 就不会分离 能够分开也只不过是不够爱 love is love 剧情一言难尽 惊讶于还有4 但又会继续看 太奇怪的心理了哈哈
看了谷阿莫，人物关系混杂，无数巧合全员挂，好疯的作品～
就是想模仿50度黑白灰呗？关键女主还没那么漂亮，剧情也没那么刺激
收手吧导演！！把列宁和希特勒画等号活该进不来🙄儿子挂掉之后反而觉得顺畅一点
剧情能看，但有点弱智，最后逆转世界局势的是一只羊~~~~~额妈呀，导演这心机婊
追溯了王牌特工的前世今生，但是完全没有了前两部的酣畅淋漓感，内容过于冗长，最亮点莫过于治腿部分的基情满满和销魂舞步，但还是中规中矩。
这个质量观众不失望才真是奇了怪了，导演把源起故事拍得既不燃，又不爽，哪怕说成独立故事，也能够成立，而且叙事节奏也有问题，很快就一泻千里了。Harris Dickinson依旧是帅的，之前还吐槽他花期太短，不过就这部电影来看，英伦风不够，绅士味甚少。
我评1的时候真没想到会有2，2还没看，真没想到会有3。现在尴尬的是，2还没看，之后还有4，真打算逼死强迫症吗？
eng..好吧，当院线小电影看，把王丹妤看害羞，哈哈
太可怕了，这居然第三部都上映了，看这样还会有第四部！拜托《五十度》系列都没这么过分好吗？！剧情真的是无力吐槽，就靠几场do i的戏码吸引眼球了，除了看两主角各种上床又吵架又和好，最后居然还整出了类似家庭伦理剧的狗血戏码，男主居然是他妈和隔壁老王生的？！WTF？？女主最后都无语了，何况观众呢？！第四部的质量已经不抱任何期待了，看看还能整出些什么花样来，拭目以待！
中规中矩，敌人源于内部，英格兰果然够humorous
有一句话叫“听人劝，吃饱饭”，但凡也不至于浪费这么珍贵的周末晚上
西方人此生最大的痛苦是自己的爱情和父母的爱情（原生家庭），而俺们中国人此生的痛苦都是上辈子造的孽。痛苦明确，所以西方人比较容易快乐，上辈子不知在哪，所以中国人一半不知快乐为何物，另一半不知快乐为何物，却以为自己知道。
硬是要点开第三部，简直是超乎想象。没脸看完。
