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'.

感觉男主是一个性格特别坚毅的人，在做大事上绝不含糊，只有在面对母亲的时候才会进退两难，不过好在男主母亲是一个特别开明的人。
巨大的登月历史背景与小人物家庭生活的 幻想与交织
散文化的叙述，讲述那个时代的许许多多熟悉的事情，但没有一个片段可以称得上故事。情感怀旧浅白。
这几年纯个人风格化作品蔚然成风，姜文、娄烨、昆汀、卡隆、安德森均已纷纷发表，老林可不甘示弱，碎片大师这次还整了个花活，好家伙。 ps: 他之前好像承诺过要拍Before 4作为系列收尾。
看到孩子们那么简单的吃食都吃的很开心，想到现在平时浪费粮食，觉得自己很可耻
很自豪的看到，阿尔忒弥斯即将接过阿波罗的大棒，继续追寻远方!
不得不说，中国的发展历程是特殊的，在一家孩子众多的年代，物质生活跟不上，在与片中孩童精神文明相符的年代，又独生了，很多与兄弟姐妹一起成长的参与感缺失是一大遗憾。篇中的生活万幸是用动画来演绎，若以真人视频剪辑合成，则远达不到如此吸人眼球的效果。在片中也亏到了美帝与俄国星际争霸的根源及社会导向，同比来说，中国默默成长确实是个好的路。
景色美不必多说，角色的服装也很有讲究，让我在电影里看到了西藏的样子
这样的老师多多益善，很朴素很真实的电影，很有代表性。
看到了美国60年代的生活，不一样的童年生活，还挺有意思的，对比起来反而登月部分有点无聊了。
每个有过被上班父母独自关在家里的独生子都会喜欢那自由浪漫天真美好无拘无束的70年代吧，真的是好好阿。
挺温情的一部片子～看片名的时候其实隐约感觉到这部片的基调会是比较偏文艺片的，整体看完真的内心有种莫名的舒服，人间的真情还是有的，人性的温暖与美好支撑我们继续前进，也鼓舞我们去变得更好～感谢这部片，我知道接下来自己该怎么做了～⭐️
#这真是一个现实的问题：“心”和“力”的一场博弈。可能心有余而力不足，可能力有余而心不足，可能心力皆不足，可能心力皆有余，可能心力刚刚好……所以那些没有坚持3年的老师，旁人又用什么立场去judge？
其实是美国版《阳关灿烂的日子》。怀念的是同一批人同一个世代，被怀念的也是同一批。怀念的是两种不同的自由。不知道有没有苏联版本的。
如果不是动画可能看不进去，琐碎的美国童年，中国人就没啥共鸣了
在现在浮躁的社会，能看到这样清新的电影真的很不常见了，希望能多拍点儿支教类型的电影
疫情反弹，重回云观影，感谢不散组织大家在这变异病毒肆掠的世界，再次享受到如此震撼人们心灵，鼓舞人心，感动中国的好片子。人要有崇高的追求，不能被淹没在物欲横流的物质世界。中国最缺乏的就是教育，教育才能兴国安邦。如果没有这些崇高的支教老师的奉献，以及很多胸有大爱的人砥砺前行，是不行的
想象和现实 世界要闻和童年回忆 交织在一起
略琐碎…美梦成真的方法就是在极度疲倦的时候观看一个喜欢的电视节目，然后努力让脑电波和节目信号同频。
偷猎者太可恶了，那段看得我血气上涌，不过主角团还是很机智的！
