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'.

我大青岛简直美呆了！当家乡的宣传片看满分哦！导演抖音快手刷多了吧？拍个电影这么赶时间吗？天呐噜，从童年到青年到中年到老年，我管你是不是幻想意淫出来的桥段，你把科研工作者想象成阿甘我能理解，想象成岩井俊二我也忍了，最不能理解的是还想象成妄想家，这不是尊重科学，这是在白日做梦！不过该怎么说，青岛和干细胞宣传片做得还不错！值得鼓励！
这干细胞的广告做的有点大啊，是为了科普吗，可是最后结局也太梦幻了
6/10。王朔和冯小刚一样去追溯青春的爱与痛了，折射出苦难与救赎的女性立场和生命母题。凌芳一开始就失去父母，村里亲戚领养她后每天就是洗衣、被责骂和撵出家门，甚至安排与畸形儿相亲，因此比任何人有更有成功的野心，不断陪酒和攀关系进入演艺圈。萌萌这个无拘无束、充满朝气的女孩形象是从小鲁的视角展示，体现在割阑尾炎、留学合租、小提琴路演和吃年夜饭时投怀送抱等一系列事件，至于后半段她对干细胞研究近乎宗教般的牺牲，采取的也是一种与苦难为伴的救赎意识，疾病缠身的每一刻都是与时间赛跑，临终前醒悟只有爱能治愈死的疼痛，不向爱自己的人表达情感，只怕以后连表达的机会都没有。最后成为植物人的小鲁视角由慢视力变成眨眼的‘‘倍速’’感知，照顾余生的凌芳和打招呼又跑出去的女儿穿梭于各个生命节点，包含着记忆和将来的生命最高形式。
完全辜负了王珞丹和王传君的演技！我丹姐太美了，完美驾驭各年龄段，各种人生阶段！！
3.王朔这么多年过去还沉浸在那个京圈美梦里，上次听闻他正在创作涉及人类历史命运的宏大作品，现在却中间出现这样一个东西，很难不感失望。
3.5。一个老人的伤感，写成小说就可以了。电影没有了缺少的语调，
感觉两个小时的片子像两个导演拍的，前一个小时质感很好，剧情和智商人物逻辑都在四星的线，后一半像拍到一半没有经费了开始拉干细胞企业的经费成了大型干细胞广告，剧情和人物关系往无厘头的方向发展一直拉垮到收尾。换个名字和剪掉中间大幅讲干细胞的部分其实会是一部质感很好的作品。有点可惜。
王氏电影。那个曾让你打破自己固有的生活，让你为之疯狂的人，你会忘记他吗？
7.5
加一星鼓励！放了很低的期待去看，没想到大获惊喜。每次到煽情的时候总会有一个又一个奇奇怪怪的黑色幽默打断，姑且称做一种克制。而很多人讨厌的干细胞却恰恰是我认为最重要的打破本片俗套的关键点，你会发现在一个狗血的伤痛爱情故事的外壳下，编剧想要探讨的是生命的长度与生命的意义的关系。生命的意义在于体验与记忆，所以带着记忆死去是幸福的，因此王传君最后的眼泪悲伤的不是苏，而是他自己，他永远死不了，但总有一天他的所有美好回忆都会褪去，这比死更可怕，也是在“不死”的高概念下最显眼的议题。
明明很烂，却用死亡、爱情，让你觉得好像是很深奥，所以看不懂的假象。
全片都通过男主角的讲述，毫无电影艺术可言，没有任何可思考的空间。
网友的解读关于男主的幻境我是认同的。
整个剧情神神乎乎，就是来看王传君的。这部电影评论里乌烟瘴气的，但提供了不少可拉黑的名单，算是唯一的惊喜了吧。
人类的命运就是幸福和悲惨的纠缠体。
怎么说呢，很怪…
角度比较清奇的片子，用了一点点超现实主义，来重新探讨这个人时常会感到迷茫的问题。从切腹自尽的关谷神奇到郭小鲁，从唱歌难听的杜拉拉到苏凌芳，演员自身的蜕变也正巧印证着这个主题。
第三：女主的设定是一个没有底线的女明星？？ ？ ？？？是只有这种女人老去才值得惋惜？
王老和萌萌就自然多了，想和这俩人做朋友。
不知道讲了啥 像是爱情像是年代故事也像一个悲剧 却仿佛有一种魅力吸引你看下去 就是没有逻辑的线索串起了故事 王珞丹真美啊 原来爱情就是 你来过一阵子 我记一辈子 如果记忆没有告诉你我爱你 那就用一辈子 用长长的一生去证明 结尾貌似是两个结局 其实我更愿意相信到车祸苏醒那里戛然而止 或许是最好的结局 爱了一生却谁都没有说出口 余生不长了 让他们在一起吧
