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'.

叙事和氛围烘托都比TV强很多，也能感觉到编剧导演想表达出来的核心思想。但是作为剧场版还是缺少了一些爆点，最后只憋出了个永辉形态，BOSS那边也只是拉了个德斯特鲁多斯来救场，邪恶特利迦的压迫感还是太弱了，作为剧场版很难满意，如果能把这部特别篇压缩成tv的上下两集哪怕是大结局，都算是神回了。
我控诉这种题材拿给法国拍是最好…导演竟然就是夏洛特甘斯布老公…
只能说干啥都不能对比，其实整体看下来，就是普通一集的加长版，并没有那么好，就是正常水平。但是由于tv版质量过于参差不齐，以至于这种正常水平都已经是十分罕见的了，如果当初tv每集都可以是这水平多好，随时不是神作，但总归可以平稳着落啊
全片最灵魂的可能是那句“如果你让世界微笑，我们就来让你微笑”，这么精彩的一句话就放在这么个犄角旮旯真的可惜了。你把这句话放进tv里当个全篇的主题句，再不济围绕这个写两三集，tv剧水平绝对能上一个台阶。
最后的发言很精彩 法庭上审判案件寻求的不是真相 是法律事实
没有拒绝，就不算性侵吗？有意义吗 还要拍一部电影出来
故事本身都挺好的，奈何拍的不太行，无限慢动作、流于表面、强行煽情，可惜了。
好喜欢鸭先知，太可爱了。诗也有打动人的地方。另外两个建议不看。
章子怡的《诗》非常动人 父亲的温柔母亲的坚毅 大漠黄沙中流露的爱意 还有那个年代舍小家为大家 航天人的勇敢 坚持 和浪漫 另外三段就很一般了 王菲的《如愿》唱得很好听~
同时，导演也交代了目前法国的法律和司法制度的环境背景之当代完美现状：陪审团制、无罪推断原则、法律的矫正功能和教育意义以及社会意义、司法独立不受舆论操弄、淡化法律的惩罚意义、关注两位当事人的心理修复和社会修复等。 而，既然是思想实验，剩下的，就交给诸位讨论了。
突然就有一点老奥特的味道了，为邪恶迪迦被鞭尸而感到快乐，我怎么感觉邪迪好像比特利迦帅………真空包装真的属实笑啦了
一个事实两种感知，没有真相，或有机会主义强奸，只有红色警戒，么有灰色地带，no means no…silence does not means yes…沉默并非同意，拒绝就是拒绝；ask for yes before you going on….. one night stands or one night rape ? what if your daughter told you she was raped, what will you do? Kill him.
tv当时大家狂喷是吃了泽塔太好的亏
章子怡的《诗》拍得很细腻，跟其余三个篇章明显视觉不同。父亲告诉孩子，自己的职业是在天上写诗；父亲死后，母亲承受丧夫之痛，坚持钻研航天事业及独自抚养孩子——这苦难而又没有诗意的生活最后却是用诗来读给孩子听的——女性细腻真挚的浪漫情感很打动人。
那个女实习生给他爸生了个孩子？？这个情节有什么用，我不理解
为了徐峥和沈腾打分，沈腾出乎意料的不是很好
2021年法国的《最后的决斗》，缺点确实是拖的太长；导演很明显并不想草草下结论，试图给两方视角，庭审戏很好看，但是穿插的上帝视角在这时候并没有作用，已经知道发生了什么；no和yes在这里显得更加重要，庭审的意图在这里也很明显，终述说的在清楚不过
控訴和辯護太做戲了，都在打感情牌，連一次「反對」都沒有。
不该叫“我和我的父辈” 应该改名父与子。章子怡这篇无论从格局上还是故事架构上都是最好的。
反应两个不同背景，不同性别的人对一件事截然不同的感知，有些东西的边界是模糊的，女性认为侵犯的，男性习以为常的认为是同意。没有说不，不代表同意，沉默也不是同意，沉默代表痛苦。同时对周围人不同背景、不同性别、不同宗教、不同阶级的人刻画蛮不错。甘斯布儿子某个角度蛮像妈妈。
