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'.

看到了国产电影的尝试，内容和最近读的一个小说短篇《焦虑是自由引起的眩晕》异曲同工，平行世界之间的联系微妙神奇最终还是焦虑功利。演员的表演有时有种怪异的话剧感，画面还是很美，北欧风的色调加分。
这是电影应有的样子之一，这是人类应有的故事之一。
一直看不懂这种平行空间的谁是谁，一切都可以用梦，要不就是精神分裂来解释，哈哈哈
没看过，但我只想打一星。天天给我推荐一个叫编剧雷神的网红，短视频讲的含糊不清，缺乏知识储备，深度不够，原来编剧这么好当的呀，也就忽悠一下圈外人。这几天又开始商业互吹找一些其他网红吹自己背景，我tm早就把这个人屏蔽了，结果又tm给我推荐他，无语了，这个网红视频下面的大部分评论弱智的要死，看几部电影就当自己是影评人了？
可能是近些年东出昌大演技最好的一部了。曾经的优等生，最终也要面临回乡考公般的内卷跃迁。遛狗、跑步、玩滑板、放烟花，看日影总有一种感受：好像什么也没讲，但好像又讲了很多。【幻月】
理由?并不需要
滑板少年的支线很压抑。
但是 依旧无法好好活着
美式乡村家庭戏，味如嚼蜡，不烂也太寻常，克鲁尼近几年不太行。
影片是一個關於成長和勇氣的故事，一群大叔帶著靦腆的小學生開敞篷出去玩耍的場景太美好……總是努力假裝成loser的耶魯才子終於“戰勝”了前女友和父親，背負責任去紐約打拼，回頭一看，睿智的查理舅舅仍然與世無爭地每天在酒吧擦著杯子、和老友們相聚甚歡，百感交集之間回憶錄就這樣寫成了……
3.5 典型的日本丧片，函馆真是怎么拍都很美，结尾加半星！勇敢的放手也是一种收获吧.
什么可以成就一个出色的耶鲁学生和作家？
小树你怎么和小师叔在一起了... （异物志粉）不过主题也挺简单的，小成本，本来有机会刻画的更深一些，黑暗森林法则，最后还是平淡了... 找了个家人不缺但是女主空缺的副本去了，话说本科和博士差别那么大吗... hhhhhh
还行吧，平行宇宙瑞克和莫蒂都讨论烂了的话题，国产第一次见。有限宇宙，一切皆无意义；无限宇宙，无限可能。啊、啊、啊、啊、啊、啊、啊～
我这个可以看慢片闷片的人都看不下去了。实在太流水账了，没有能和人物建立情感链接的纽带。导演George Clooney对于“为什么我要关心这个人物”一点都不在乎，一个劲的直线输出，完全不在意观众有没有反馈。说实话他导演一直就这个毛病。早期还好点，confession of a dangerous mind和good night and good luck有演员人物加持。这部就完全撑不起来了。
画面很美，属于我每隔一段时间就会安安静静观看一部的电影类型。钝感 以至于受抑郁侵袭都无法察觉。
2021.10.15 英皇电影城-北京英皇集团中心店 很有趣的科幻悬疑片，从影片的设定感觉可以延展出无数条分支线。演员和场景非常简洁，在某种程度上可以算是一个“密室”了。影片的后端我差点以为会是个闭环的故事，不知道按照那个方向发展会不会有更加细思恐极的故事呢？另外，风景真是美，很多画面的构图也很棒！
和雄的“跨越栅栏”结尾已经十分明亮了，踏出草坪的那一刻更疯却也更自由，冲破束缚并非软弱者能作出的决定。一直以来他都是个只关注自己的人，衷心希望他永远自由，因为他很有可能就是某一个的我的缩影。而真正被遗留在世俗里的纯子，该有多孤独？迁就、忍让、小心翼翼，想找话题却毫无回音，生活琐屑里藏着她被否定的价值，于是她带着破碎的人生驶向未知。当那张脸变得毫无波澜，眼神变得静止，然后并不期待作答地问出“我们为什么会变成这样”时，是啊，我也想问佐藤泰志，是不是世界总会走向熵增，人生总会通往更糟。
虽然、但……奈绪很像是东出会喜欢的出轨类型
女主最后的笑容和里面哥哥说的一些小故事太恐怖了 幸好有人陪我看 自己看我要尿了🙃
