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'.

继faiz、decade后，平成第三位死亡的骑士。其实从特效、战斗场面、剧情等各方面都能看出拍得很赶（or预算有限），但TV的核心情感抓住了，成功以角色互换的方式再度唤醒10年前的记忆。你们都在的明天，为什么无法到来？
🔪傻了，剧情太赶，几个干部啥也没干就GG，王莫名复活
四分吧，我找到的时候真的没发现这个剧场版竟然才不到一个小时。哪家剧场版这么寒酸啊？至少得一个多小时吧。怪不得后期节奏快到飞起。甚至都不知道八百年前的王是怎么复活的。(ᇂ_ᇂ|||)
作为十周年OOO的最后一场战斗可以说是极其失望
最后死的结局倒是可以接受，但是没有剧版那么顺滑，算是满足一下情怀吧，无语！我喜欢的骑士怎么在后来出场的故事里都死了！不能接受！我都要怀疑渡部秀你是不是真的喜欢凉介了！
首先剧本可以，但实际效果不咋地，可我还是被刀住了，我的第一部假面啊……
网上的剧透真的太烦了，看都没看就争相传播，还玩梗，实属没意思
其次剧情让不值满分。
还行吧，感觉中规中矩
整部剧场看下来只觉得仓促，里面的很多桥段都让我觉得牵强，看完没有调动我的感情，最好看的地方莫过于映安的演技，可惜这部十周年作品没有在剧情上给出让人满意的发挥，唉╯﹏╰最后还要整悲剧就让人接受不能了
虽然我吃炒冷饭，但是这冷饭也炒的太烂了吧岂可修！！！😭😭😭
几乎一半的时间都是泪目的，我是看ooo入坑的，当时看到最后也哭了。虽然是BE，但是也算是有一个完整的结束。
太短了点吧。。。好仓促。。。但真的也是情怀拉满了
一开始得知OOO有十周年完结篇ankh复活还算是高兴，后续得知剧透映司死了，那我就想着到底看一下他能怎么死，刚刚看完正片，这个完结篇 可以说非常的不满意 ，ankh的复活太过随意，不是说主骑不可以死，但是映司的死太过随意，就是为了死而死，你主打的是情怀牌，可是他妈的，映司本体意识出场都没十分钟，5分钟都没有，情怀个锤子 王复活了 怎么复活的都没说清楚，反派4人组的戏份也不多，无限接近于只露了个脸 正片里还有对TV的回忆杀，直接放的TV片段，你不会以为这就算情怀了吧 我宣布，全篇最燃的地方就是片尾放的tv版OP
化妆术真的可以抵御10年，电影不错，所以玩具也贵
太敷衍了，不写悲剧能死吗？高田里穗是越来越好看了
还铺了一大堆回忆
我想把你留在心中，我做不到忘记。
鸟类由恐龙演化而来，我的灭绝带来了你的新生
真心不行，别说啥情怀加分。映司的死没多大意义，抒情也一般般，本来我是那种映司死了也能接受，但你文戏要写的合理能让人看得下去的。但却搞成了这种样子，属于是能接受映司死和不能接受映司死都觉得难看的一部了
