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'.

3.5 只能说很会讲故事，制造了许多小反转和最后的大反转，最后那种想表达的“以卵击石、蟷臂挡车的立意是有了。问题也很明显，中间穿插的几段煽情和高潮段落其实挺浮于表面的，还有片中所有的人物基本都像提线木偶般，围绕着“编剧”林日朗转，可能是出场人物多吧又都是陌生人，每个人物基本都是特别刻板和单薄。
精神get到了，故事讲得好像蹩脚，台词也有点尬。。所以“误杀”了谁？
现实题材的看了让人有点遭不住，我本来想看悬疑的却没有悬疑可看。
还行吧。只不过市长到底是拍的好人还是坏人，怎么最后市长儿子还给墓碑也鞠了一躬。
大家演技都好好，伤感的音乐总是在煽情的时候响起真的很突兀，刻意的煽情真的不喜欢，没有1好看，真希望整部剧就是Plan C
骗钱的翻拍，拍得很妥协，原作可没有腐败问题，就是经济问题，非得拉上一些老靶子，太刻意了。没有什么民哲、官哲，只要用心，人人都是哲学家民间哲学家，本指非科班出身，没有接受过系统训练的哲学家，现多为贬义。当事人处于愚昧之山，不知道自己不知道。自以为对哲学有深入了解，喜欢拜读黑格尔康德这种很有名气的哲学家的著作，自己形成一套理论，肆意鼓吹自己的哲学造诣已经超过前人，但是其思想要么早已过时要么经不起推敲。
还是非常感人，剧情刺痛人心，但本以为有啥反转（毕竟男主是编剧），结果是一部“感动中国”的煽情故事，结尾部分甚至让我有一种《夺命手术》的感觉...台词太扎心。①有的孩子是孩子，有的孩子不是普通孩子；②我一辈子老老实实做人，为什么赢的总是你们（服务于强权）。
1.是我的心太硬了吗？竟然看的毫无波澜……反而觉得最后一点还有点多余 2.整部电影给人感觉很用力，演员很用力，剧情冲突反转也很用力，看的怪累的。
跟误杀没有什么干系了...这么黑的故事设置在泰国也能理解...有些地方过于煽情了。// “越往高处走，能掌控的事情就越少”
这种时候去看一部背景带着自由，上街，老大哥看着你的哆啦A梦，也是有点恍惚的感觉。2022北京5月疫情电影院恢复后的第一场电影。
剧情你懂的。不过任达华的加入，给电影增色不少。在这个时间上，估计是错峰吧
他倒下的那天下雨，他被埋的那天天晴。可是，哪有什么雨过天晴，多的不过是持续降雨。
反转出乎意料，节奏很好，气氛营造无尿点。肖央和文咏珊很好，永远不要低估一个家长可以为孩子做出什么事情。两个完全不同的故事，第一部是误杀别人，这一部别人误杀自己。萤火虫的寓意贯穿全片，就像渺小的我们在努力发光，聚在一起却不容小觑。
推门之前才挂掉的电话，是把观众智商按在地上的摩擦；昏倒的人随身携带且刚好露出来的录音笔，录下的是名为“观众就是傻子”的证据。还大声公放，生怕傻子听不到。
医院的这几个人还去了最后的葬礼，整个探讨观点有点陪审团的意思。整部电影还是有不少误杀的影子的，民众暴动那场戏最典型。要说事情的发展有很多意料之外，那最后信中很多很多动机逻辑是有问题的。
节奏比第一部差太多，配乐人员都付不起钱吗，一段不停重复，女主播人物不知所云，各种用力过猛硬凑成了一部电影。
在欧亚卖场看的，非常震撼。最喜欢肖央在电影最后写的那封信，很治愈。人生还是需要及时行乐，惊喜和意外不知道哪个先来。珍惜现在吧。
剧情反转的比较平淡，结局也不难猜，但因为可行性bug导致我想偏了，谁知道剧本他放弃了科学上的可行性（手动微笑.jpg）。
和误杀丝毫没有关系，硬是牵扯到误杀1就是圈钱的行为！没有悬疑，而亲情因为导演和编剧拙劣的设计而无法共情，真是枉费了肖央精彩的演技。
画面:8分，音乐:7分，剧情:7分（有点老套），人物: 8分（肖央加一分），观影感受: 7分，自然度：7分，深度：7分（亲情和小人物的挣扎大概是普罗大众的G点），叙述技巧:6分（）——平均分: 7.1分
