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'.

我看塔米菲，免不了生出一些“小人物的阴暗”，就觉得一个这么积极天真的人当然会被社会教育。她曾经的美好和坚定缺乏苦难的淬炼，后来好不容易等她经受挫败破茧而出，让她内心的瑰宝绽放光芒，电影就戛然而止在这里。所以我真的很难说这电影的立意在哪里，不像讽刺，不像赞颂，更像是唏嘘。可是我还是觉得一个能在经历过挫折后还想着要关怀青少年的人，她值得更多。
3. 每个议题都如蜻蜓点水般轻轻点过但又不能不提毕竟不提就对不了颁奖季评委们的胃口。但蜻蜓点水之后的涟漪会迅速消去，没有人再会记得，没有人想再提起；没有一个点有继续深挖下去，包括女性主义。
只要胆子够大，不管什么方式，哪怕坑蒙拐骗，都能实现“美国梦”。
很程式化的美国梦人物的崛起与陨落故事，杰西卡查斯坦的妆容和表演很有说服力，安德鲁加菲尔德自带一种天真喜气，两人校园恋爱虽然短暂，但是控制不住的喜悦和吸引确实很甜，找到灵魂伴侣的他们，渐渐在成功的事业中迷失，最根本的是gay老公的欺骗，让同妻塔米走向了崩坏，最终在舞台上找回自我，她最后一曲不仅感动了自己也感动了我。多荒谬可笑，只要一口咬定坚决相信，总会变成救赎的力量。
剧情很有意思，但是拍得非常寡淡，除了劳模姐的演技。
作为传记片把塔米菲夫妇的复杂性拍出来了，只是不知道为了政治正确还是尊重原型人物，有部分质控内容没有拍，在故事上有些跳跃割裂。为劳模姐表演加一星，祝她奥斯卡好运！
电影本身不算上乘，但女主演技是可以争一下小金人。（男主也不错）

劳模的表演可以的 最后一段表演太有感染力了 (虽然立刻串戏Judy) PS 加菲的脸+表演真是hard to watch
为劳模姐量身定做的冲奥片，然后就只剩陈词滥调
可能是原型人物的原因，劳模姐的表演总让我觉得不那么信服，不过看别的短评说劳模姐认为女主百分百真诚，那或许吧……电影要抓的点太多导致太散，故事本身还行。今年应该就是劳模/妮可二选一，我偏向妮可，劳模和这个角色还差点。

这一对烦人且奇葩的夫妇，活该生命那么精彩。从懵懂不知到人生巅峰再到暗淡没落，上帝引领体验了一切，虽然迷失在生命里，但塔米菲积极的语调从未改变。劳模姐值得一座小金人，没有她和加菲的表演支撑，这部戏就失去光泽了
摸摸自己的头，节日快乐啊大朋友
另外，那个蓝色衣服酱油男4谁

结合了星球大战，进击的巨人以及在曹县拍的机器猫。领袖头像眼睛装了探头，街上开两排坦克，这样的镜头居然没有被剪掉。必须给到三星，哈哈哈。
导、演俱佳。且：Cherry Jones（Tam妈妈的扮演者）和Annette Badland（神秘博士里的Slytheen女市长和Ted Lasso里的Mae的扮演者）真不是双胞胎姐妹吗？！
中间客串的话痨比格cv 梶裕贵言必称自由，战斗，乐死我了
看到中间的时候昏昏欲睡感觉不是我起太早的原因，但胡子男这单倒是蛮好听
