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'.

谢谢服装设计，我们可以看到西装司机，工装司机，白毛衣司机，滑雪服司机，polo衫司机，芭比娃娃司机，还要什么飞机。各位演技是真的在线，故事是真的就一般。
卧槽，看短评区才发现paulo gucci居然是莱托演的，惊，这直接换人的程度。嘎妈妈和司机养眼，其他一般。
要都按莱托的路子演，倒也不失为一部坎普大片。
平庸的剧本和叙事，优点是看电影的两个半小时过得很快。
雷德利·斯科特未上映片已经排到2030，要晚节不保吗？
Gaga演的这么用力又这么浮夸，这就已经是可以各种提名的演技吗？为小李子不值…
鐵叔都這麽老了啊🥺可他永遠迷人
剧情有点平淡，时长过长，节奏也慢，像流水账没有高潮。
堪為豪門家族的殘酷鑑鏡，雖話說如此，這種家破人亡的故事仍然會不斷重演。
本人今年最失败的黑五投资 浪费了两个小时（剩下没浪费的睡过去了两次 想给老爷子寄甄嬛传的意思这拍了个啥啊
就是一出狗血大戏，剧本未免太流水账了，王家卫不拍了也是对的，这么三俗的内容往高雅了拍估计会更灾难。
Jared Leto来演坏品味版的Alessandro Michele还蛮有趣的。
好看是好看，就是这司机强装的意大利口音英语太让人出戏，但凡选个能把意大利语说明白的男主不就给四星了嘛。听说接下来要演Enzo Ferrari，球球别再来祸害意大利制造了谢谢，把意大利角色还给意大利演员
考究与平庸。前前后后都少有锐气十足的无限感，两个半小时的片长在雷老爷子手里头一次变成疲累感。再度不理解为什么短评里那么多夸gaga演得好的…我们可以这样断言，在类似的现实主义叙事中使用娱乐圈的非演员celebrity，绝大多数的情况下都会变成灾难。本片还真没有到灾难的程度——gaga老师确实有一手，但是在具体情节的从塑造到传达，都真是完全不行。举个例子，男主父子和解，几乎是女主一手促成的，但父亲并不卖她面子，无视了她付出的努力。我们可以说这就是全片悲剧的雏形和预兆，那女主在被无视的这一刻，情绪是什么？怎么想，怎么隐瞒自己怎么想？怎么应对？后续有什么余韵？不妨回忆一下何赛飞老师是怎样诠释被禁止戴孝的杨九红的，再想想，究竟什么程度的表演，才是「演得真好」。
卡司不错，可惜人物没立住，剧情没新意，平铺直叙的感觉。
整体还是好看的，只是没有太大亮点，过于四平八稳了。
5.5/10.0。GaGa首次登上荧幕，不得不说确实有亚平宁半岛贵气女主人的神韵，选角毫无违和感。雷德利的电影风格就是如此，总有一条微弱模糊的红线夹在独立电影和工业电影之间。你以为是风云变幻跌宕起伏的Gucci教父史，实际上更接近物理亢奋却精神阳痿的平庸，在兼具工业电影的华丽精美和独立电影的审慎严谨之下，不温不火直到结束，当今影坛也无出其右了。
流水账和史诗之间往往只有一条虚线。看得出雷公完全是抱着玩票的心态拍的，四平八稳无聊得拍完了整部电影，虽然后端开始观感逐渐变好，但是仍然不见用心创作的印记。但转念一想，这种卖力不讨好的题材，在现在或许只有雷公老马这一批见证过黄金时代的老导演才会选择拍吧

冗长的电视剧感，没有戏剧高潮。嘎嘎肥如村妇，让人生厌。
