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'.

缉毒高层烂透，新一打两针可以轮番出窍，反正命多一挑众很过瘾，最后还有美人等你醒。
很喜欢音乐剧版的Jamie，知道要出电影版之后几乎是掰着指头等上映。剧版里最打动我的角色是妈妈，但电影版最催我泪的是Hugo的回忆，把原版我觉得搞笑成分更多的角色真正赋予了mentor的意义，Hugo一个人抱着花束的镜头我哗哗流泪🥲。个人感觉比较失望的改动是第一次登台前Jamie找到Mimime的自我认同方式，从完全的内心自我呐喊变成了Hugo取名😂同时本来很期待会怎么改编关于hijab的讨论，结果直接没了，fine😅总体而言是我愿意二刷的片子
I'm not gay.
三星全都给到McCrea……太美了🥺🥺不要自作聪明改这么多细节好吗 很喜欢剧版Pritti和Jamie作为minority的连结，电影似乎弱化了……（而且在stereotyping feminist
以前听舞台版专辑我只给3星，但电影版改得不错。剧情依然很淡，很多歌曲依然拖住剧情推进，但电影版感觉好听一点。
故事整体逻辑性只能说一般般，编剧想法很好，导演水平差点，动作戏可以
为孤独的灵魂而来，顺带瞧瞧奸臣和人间中毒的林智妍，不料竟是12小时换1个人身的寻找记忆。#《灵魂脱离者》#，是得了《西游记》三尺神散七窍生烟的真传么？
电影需要更多的细节和真实填满
说真的因为有了音乐剧的珠玉在前，我个人并不太喜欢电影里面的Jamie，太drama。电影里的歌舞好似也没有在剧院里面看的有感染力，但是依然还算是可圈可点的。
故事挺有吸引力的，前半小时还算抓得住，后面就明显降星了，最后来个英雄救美，浪费题材
题材设定不错，可惜故事平平，各种莫名其妙的逻辑bug，浪费了。
刚开始有点迷惑 慢慢的搞清楚之后 觉得还不错
还没看过音乐剧的版本，但影版也挺让人惊喜的。Jamie在变装的过程中找到了真实的自己，也好幸运拥有这样的家人和朋友~
整体剧情就是男主不断魂穿几个对手的身体，寻找自我记忆和身体的故事。前半段还挺刺激的，节奏也很紧凑。
就倒也不是不行，但总感觉剧情差了一口气……另外原型长得真的好像罗南😑😑😑
前面极其精彩，最后反派突然降智，有枪不用，以至于十几个人被一人团灭。
一部电影怎么可以这么毫无美感？！剧本创意新颖，但从演员到布景，到情节都毫无趣味，不知道是导演审美导向还是意识导向。总结，烂片。
比现场差很多，更喜欢原版和韩版，故事线有缺失。
我也觉得比舞台版官摄好看，故事讲的不错，而且节奏气氛啥的都挺好的。这一版杰米没有那么妖但非常可爱，甚至是个温柔坚韧的小甜心，我还蛮喜欢的。雨果这一段闪回很好。去掉了最后闪瞎人的亮相有些子遗憾，但想想青春电影停在不错的毕业典礼也挺好的。
电影题材蛮新颖的，打戏动作也很到位，整体来说还不错！
