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'.

不能因为tv烂就对剧场版放低要求，主角团演技真的又烂又尬，别再说什么演员尽力了，还是期待5月新曼吧
今年看到现在，目前的年度第二，仅次于阿彼察邦的记忆。导演和摄影神了，演员更是全线在线，庭审戏可进教科书，水平吊打威尼斯和戛纳主竞赛的水平。
每年一部的我和我的系列，比家乡好。整个电影里面诗最细腻非常女性视觉。乘风就是非常典型的战争故事，父子矛盾和情感没有铺垫，全靠观众自行脑补。徐峥的故事完全是叫作业式的，有他的笑点只是很皮毛的笑点。沈腾的“父子”角色处理的最意外，喜剧的节奏还是很开心麻花，有快慢，有包袱。
《诗》与《鸭先知》不错，不过另外两篇就拖后腿了。
（ 6 / 10 ）从这四个单元安排的顺序来看，有一个内在的子辈与父辈的继承关系：被《乘风》里父辈保护的孩子，可能就会成为《诗》中新中国成立后第一代科研人员，第一代科研人员的子辈也许又是《鸭先知》中涌立改革潮头的先知，这些敢于第一个吃螃蟹的先辈，又为下一代《少年行》的引领超越打下基础。这种继承关系不是微观的 “子承父业” ，而是宏观的让祖国强大起来的代际发展。父辈牺牲子辈传承，子辈站在父辈肩膀上，才让中国 “从站起来，到富起来，再到强起来” 。
法国版《知晓我姓名》，偏题地说，两位律师的结语都太牛了。
只能说一般好，比起艾克斯剧场版差不少，致敬星光战士的段落还行。
程序正义还是结果正义？道德还是法律？一个人还是一群人的电车难题，我还在琢磨，估计这辈子也琢磨不到真理。但我知道只要万劫不复的人类还在，我还在其中之一，一个最保底良性的社会就应该让绝大多数人有生活而不只是活着的朝气，有反对而不只是妥协的勇气，有不断向上追求而不是无止境向下兼容的生机。
最后一个镜头：冷静且理性的庭审判决与女孩被侮辱与被损害的面孔同时出现，在理性思考与感性同情之间达到了平衡。
《鸭先知》可见徐峥的机灵与才华，将拍广告的故事讲述得巧妙有趣；这也大概是公然在电影里插入广告而不会让观众感到厌烦的吧。
最后的审判陈词，以及最终宣判结果，值得思考
其实没有tv好，
影片中男女之间的关系，没有真相，只有不同性别、立场的各自解读。法庭上男女辩护律师都慷慨陈词，法官的判决也能服人。在男女关系的讨论中，男性立场和女性立场永远是无法和解的。
泪目，名字叫Z篇主角却不是泽塔。
一种文明下的不同文化/丰富的感性借由理性的逻辑呈现
剧情真的不咋的特别1、4，怀旧煽情没啥深度，几个故事拼一起总有点舞台剧的感觉。徐峥的故事算最有意思的，可能跟自己的工作和生活的城市比较贴近有关系。
最后的审判陈词，以及最终宣判结果，值得思考
相对于tv而言，剧场版的完成度更好，故事虽然简单，但也讲清楚了。人物镜头不多，但也展现出每个人的特点，都正常多了。和tv一样的是，特利伽总是在挨打，总是被群殴。总感觉特利伽三分钟特别长，敌人打完一个又来一个，直到被打回人形。这次比较亮眼的设计是和泽塔联动。这次是赛雷布洛攻略了遥辉，这样算来军械库战斗组里也就结花和队长没被染指过了。这次的故事节奏还是稍微有些拖沓，感觉可以更紧凑些。战斗篇幅比较大，三场战斗，第一场泽塔单挑，第二场是泽塔、遥辉为主，第三场是群架。第一场速战速决。第二场构架比较清晰，双奥都切了肌肉形态在高压电线围成的角斗场里和双怪对决，接着就是红眼泽塔暴打遥辉。第二场的话有点儿乱，节奏也慢了，黑特对红眼泽塔基本是被压制。终战三奥对邪迪打得还没遥辉夺回身体控制权来得热血，就有点儿纠结
法律和道德的正义不对等的时候，法律保护了哪一方？最后的辩论部分真的压抑又精彩～
在一夜情和强奸之间竟还有一条漫长的容易模糊视野的灰色地带，哇！多么大胆的粉饰！完全的盛气凌人的姿态，多多少少还带着一点身不由己的狂傲以及来自意识形态里的轻蔑。
