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'.

看预告感觉还行，就是不知道正片怎么样，希望和我想象的一样吧。
这种小品式的电影不知道从何时起反而成为了网大中的一股清流。
就是说，个人最喜欢的是，雷雨天俩人一起躺在床上互相对视的那一幕。
整体来说延续了烧烤之王的套路，合格的非院线片……其实并不足够搞笑，也有可能是我的笑点太高了。
emmmm有时候想说，双视角并不是换个卡梅拉就可以了，双视角想传达的东西是不一样的，这个片子算是一点都没有传达到，其次人物特点也不算做得太好，特点不鲜明，导致了我甚至没有怀念堇的感觉，也不知道为什么要怀念堇，此处建议看看隔壁的横道世之介，还有就是如果这个片子有想表达因为海啸带走了亲人朋友而走不出来的意思在的话，倒是get到了一点，其他的就表达不出来的感觉，意识流的部分甚至吓我一跳
故事节奏不太好，主题不太明确，但情绪到了。
是一部让人不忍错过任何一帧的电影。每一个镜头都在诉说着海量的故事、每一个场景都被美和情浸满了，就是让人移不开眼。
透过本片再次感受到豆瓣某些评价的“逼格”属性——宁愿为自己都看不太明白的故弄玄虚的所谓风格作品打高分来保持自己的优越感，也不愿意给一部简单真诚的喜剧合理的分数。现在5.9的分数过低，客观点来说，6.9都尚可。的确有很多过于讨巧的段子拼贴痕迹，但演员们的演技都很在线（尤其刀爷这一角色的扮演者——张琪），对葬礼这一中国人骨子里较为避讳的话题展现得也算笑中带泪，比不少网大甚至上映的某些电影都强太多了。
在友情和爱情的边境，她长眠进海里，永久沉默了。提一个建议，日本人拍311可以不用非要把其他受害者拍出来，整部影片感情会中断。
比较另类的百合片，基调更像是灾难后亲属缅怀的纪录片，所以拍得比较琐碎，算是缺点。理清两位女主隐秘的感情线后会非常戳心，像呼吸一样若隐若现，像大海一样深邃沉默。动画插入的表现非常惊艳，bgm绝对是加分项，大海的镜头也非常唯美。两位女主隔着海岸，但最终她化作一滴水落入花园永远陪伴着她。
错过了归还发圈给你的好时机 也错过了和你坦诚心意的好时机 话说那个咬手真的很涩诶
比预想的要好，虽然有些细节经不起推敲。但远比很大的无脑网大要好太多太多。
东抄西抄也就这样，难得一桌子能凑齐这么多东北人，本来以为能带点民俗啥的，结果所有的狠人都是一秒变怂，所有的狠人都是浪子回头
浪费我宝贵的夜晚时间，一头雾水看完😩？？？一星给滨边美波。
隐晦的悲情故事和有点老套的错过，有喜欢的部分和我喜欢的忧愁感，但有点长（）多一星给堇🤧🤧。
挖坑容易填坑难，禁不起推敲，还好包袱还是有的，笑笑就好
海的意义是什么？对于堇是苦苦寻找自我，对于真奈是认识与接纳死亡？前面不知道讲了些什么，最终导向了很常见的地震海啸主题，今天天气晴朗，该放下的都放下吧。【“我喜欢走路。”“你记住回去的路了吗？”“我也喜欢迷路。”】莫名很喜欢这一段对话。没想到美波也有被衬得高大的一天。
「你选择和自己和解的时候，我和你同在。我能听见。」
好含蓄的蕾丝爱好闷的故事推进 二倍速都觉得节奏慢 故事尚且及格导演功力不够 只能说男导演不会拍拉拉
