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'.

分钟长的伪长镜头促舒适，抛去一切刻板设定与刻奇剧情，电影的题眼应该就是“其他乐队成员呢？”“去世了”“那就大声
感觉还好啦，没有那么差。也有温馨和感人之处。就是感觉，嗯，有钱作～的。
爱了爱了我真的爱了，好久没看见这么轻松快乐的古早味
总体来说还是第一部好看点，主要第一部这个利用丧尸当能源的设定开创太有意思了
完全忘记第一部内容,但并不影响??反正都是胡编.这些丧尸还是新能源呢.一言不合就反水了.打的倒是挺过瘾.5"
說起來，本片最大的缺點在於小女兒Cora的故事。全片暗示了無數次Cora性嚮的問題，暗示了無數次她和Adan的表妹Vanessa互相喜歡。但是所有伏筆最終都被扔掉，沒有任何進展，而且她活在各方面都完美的姐姐陰影下的故事也同樣中途就被放棄，就顯得有點莫名其妙。要麽是本片打算拍聚焦Cora的續集，要麽就是對這麽一部瞄准傳統價值觀電影里是否要加入這個元素還是有猶豫。

我觉得比第一部还有意思一点呢！比第一部好看。结尾的时候，两兄妹还能走出来我也是醉了。期待第三部。
太丑了，而且还有味道……男主角晚上躲家里听的那段东西，确定不是邪教的宣传内容？
...
我觉得拍的挺精致的，没有常见印度歌舞，确实是另一番风格。以及，她的爱可以说出来，而你的不可以。

N多年没看cult片了，真的顶不住啊，我不接受
就是男主的身材，体毛重真显脏～
片名和内容有什么关系？以为是谍战片，实际是爱情片，而且是那种非常无聊老套的爱情片。男女主的感情戏部分让人入不了戏，两人实力演绎不搭；事业线部分很无趣，一堆中情局，看似很牛逼专业的人在那逼叨逼，但完全没有紧张刺激、信息量巨大的感觉。
挺好看的，喜剧也挺搞笑。
5.9.HBOmax也开始用大数据写剧本了？剧情几乎无任何有新意的波澜，全都按照好莱坞最经典的分歧-冲突-谈话-和解路线进行，角色更是毫无丰满可言。安迪加西亚是唯一看点。
没字幕，生肉看。
