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'.

让人特别的亲切和舒服，感觉进入了文明社会~
所有的一切都是为了最后一场戏的无声的拥抱，
当强奸似乎成为老生常谈但却好像无药可解，当女性被迫要用一种骇人的方式才能引起人们严肃的注意力，这真是社会的悲哀。
又一个星期四要来了，世界看起来正在变好，罪恶可能会更加隐蔽，社会只是在迂回。
宁愿犯罪、打碎自己现在平静的生活，也要尽力保护一个小女孩的安危。确实是英雄，值得尊敬
剧情比较老套，配乐也是一惊一乍的，反正你会比主角先猜到下一步会是什么样的剧情！全程都是快进看的！ 用电影反应社会问题，这一点还行吧
好的电影是可以改变法律的，20220406,6+6等于几
印度女性开始觉醒了，好棒！特别是nana虽然走进了监狱，但是从下车开始就赢得了女子监狱的尊重
我感觉很屌，为什么豆瓣那么多装B的。这个不给人很多启发？人家可以拍这样的片对zf，我们拍这种能过审？
一己之力推动立法，girls help girls
为什么设定是妹妹，不是女儿？在跟养父母对峙时，女主说，是我把她养大的？？？？？？？？？？？5岁？？？？？养大？？？？
可以根据故事改变现实
3.5⭐还不错，节奏稍微有点诡异，尤其是女主的卡点定格笑。反应的社会现实问题也很令人揪心，在如此混乱的大环境下，普通人能做的只能是孤注一掷得牺牲自己，引起大家注意。希望有一天，女生们能真的站起来，站的更高，通过立法和改变社会风气，girl helps girl👧🏻不光是在印度。
Hotstar出品 印地语电影的流媒体化 女性意识觉醒的表述越来越直接大胆 惊悚是形式 反映社会问题是内核 这个片子要设定在总理是女性的前提下才有可能成立 可就算当上总理还会被说“你太情绪化了 你只是个女人”
印度的网警也忒摸鱼了吧……视频随便传？投票随便投？
含而不露的演出，但一切尽在不言中，真厉害。
TA还那么小，5-yeas-old, just 5-years-old。不知道发生了什么。把TA的位置慢慢挪到背靠着窗户。不需要记得这一切。忘记我，好好活着。
桑德拉布洛克的表现非常稳定，一如既往的出色，是她该有的水平。
厉害，印度电影已经达到这个高度了嘛。我是说尺度上探到达的高度。
两个🌟送给女主以及任何同鲑鱼厂有关的戏。这种剧本，戏剧冲突层层绕，本质是melodrama，人物是散的，甚至是工具化的，全靠situation推进，很美剧的写法，很假。sandra bullock爆发砸东西那场更是假…
