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'.

什么都好，但国产科幻题材真的不用刻意从影调上模仿……
老生常态的父子关系和成长疼痛，加上个明星舅舅做伴，从故事选择到格局突破，乔治克鲁尼继续证明着自己不是一个好导演
典型美式成长电影；大本一瘦回去就显得年轻多了。
讨论了一下人性吧：
被朋友抓去看的点映，本来是一脸懵逼走进去的，结果看完了发现电影竟然还不错，有北美小众电影那味儿了，作为科幻悬疑片来说剧情有超出预期，好几个地方都很紧张，虽然结尾跟我预想的有差距，但瑕不掩瑜吧～
试图弄清自己到底是谁，一边在往这个目标去靠近而一边本能又拼命把自己拉回。不知道要跑多久，才能真正让自己做回自己。nao和东出只能说演的太好，把这种“似有似无”的夫妻关系塑造得超完美。
电影我没看，找不到不到资源，但我看简介是copy了麦子叔主演的《重生之门》

还行 剧情有不合理和僵硬的地方 但是毕竟是100万的片子
希望能够拍出更加优秀的作品。
希望会有越来越多的国产的悬疑片 我太喜欢悬疑片了
讨论了一下人性吧：
看的自己都要变精神分裂症了，要不是冲着雷神我才不会看
要如何消化人在集体社会环境中受到的伤害?守护住一颗天真纯粹的心?能否找到一些让人感到生命活着的事情去做?脚踩在草地上，散步、奔跑、滑行、放烟火，与城市的呼吸共振。摄影师远景镜头下的函馆多么美丽，看那澄澈的天光，空旷的广场和堤坝，低矮的山，蔚蓝的大海。
对于国产电影来说，做的太好了。小成本电影，拍摄的不错，氛围营造的也可以，演员演技在线，真的挺好。瑕疵就是剧本结束的太草率了，其实整片留下的疑点还是有点的，但是最后结束的有点意外，看似给了女主一个完美的结局，其实并不好，没有这个必要。如果剧情能再到位一点，再有更多的细节呼应，可以向神作靠齐了，可惜还是差点火候，值得鼓励！8.3分。
女孩想要养猫、狗、还有孩子
滑板，奔跑，奔跑到力竭，喝酒，奔跑然后发疯，继续奔跑
我承认是个不知所云的烂片，可有些桥段难免让我共鸣。毕业、人生失去目标、对一个人的执着迷恋和依赖……默默等待这些消失在人生大背景里
还行 大屏幕是应该是灵异第六感吧 也就是女主已经死了
评论就挺搞笑的 什么上来就知道平行空间之类的 都他喵2021年了 还跟你似的生活在家里没有家用电器 没有5G网络的远古时代嘛？ 自己无知还不让社会进步了？说回电影 看电影本来就是看故事 故事讲的够精彩就好看 就是不错的电影
