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'.

好算不上，个别梗还能逗逗乐，最后狗尾续貂太多
很一般的劇情，沒有跳出俗套的窠臼～不過還是要支持一下崔志佳，加上那麼多明星捧場，算是誠意滿滿～東北文化還是有很強的感染力的
有的地方还是有点意思 前面设定也挺好 大崔是个聪明人 之前可能看着这个 重刑犯去殡葬这个文章了 沈阳的妈妈送你去天国 那个一下火了 不知道还开不 ..题材挺好 故事有点弱 还是
狱后改造
300万，在监狱里，出来，能被接受，立意好，get不到笑点😅
这么多给两分又说好的到底怎么想的。。。比好多大院线的喜剧都好好么，不过还是赶不上一线喜剧。故事和段子都是一流的，包袱都不错，缺点在于故事结构上，缺乏让人心满意足的高潮结局，葬礼部分渲染得不错，本来可以作为结局，但因为好多事儿都没交待，就又多了散伙环节，当年情部分本来也可以了，又多了彩蛋彩票环节，就造成好不容易培养的感情又散掉了。褒奖为主，有待提高。
宋晓峰老师演技真好，几乎感觉不到表演的痕迹
当长篇小品看的，隔离一个多月心情肯定是不好了，放低期望，放低笑点，超过期待
基本上笑点都在预告片里了，莫名其妙的文戏，吃饱了撑的为啥要硬奶劳改犯呢？那么多遵纪守法的好人不给机会，非要去给罪犯洗地。因为那些监狱里的罪犯受到终身影响的那些家庭，谁给过他们机会？我也有蹲过监狱的好友，但我无法苟同这电影输出的观念。
三星半，挺诚心的，值得鼓励，最后的彩票点睛之笔。
想法还是不错的，完成度不是很高，本质上还是网上那些破段子破包袱
电影中的黑白处理会觉得恰到好处，战争时期哪有什么色彩，人人都生活在黑暗中，最后的红色也是在展现人们心存的信念，是心的颜色。
梁龙拿了钱，葬礼上却没出现，片尾也没提他诈骗的问题，是我错过了什么吗…
东北主体电影攒人的来回这几个人。
当长篇小品看的，隔离一个多月心情肯定是不好了，放低期望，放低笑点，超过期待
表演也还好，并不矫情，虽然还是有浓浓东北土味，但是国产电影值得肯定和鼓励。
这是根据相声 堂事 改变的么→_→；从正式葬礼开始这剧情是怎么了，最后这个结局赠送的尴尬。
洗心革面，重新做人。给犯错且受到惩罚的人改过自新的机会没有错。
鼓励一下，还是有不少小幽默的，我有点过于脆弱了，看喜剧片能看出眼泪来。
还行啊，比宋小宝潘长江岳云鹏那些人的电影可强多啦，起码没太硬嘎吱你乐，有的桥段还挺逗的。我知道那些问题，背景那些破败的东北环境没切入一下太可惜了，葬礼这个主题没上升到大环境的表达，也没有深入讲讲东北丧葬文化等等……要求太高啦，网大要能拍出那些来，中国电影就神了。
