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'.

日本的有點⋯
很多剧情还是很迷惑，但是论台词爆杀TV，好喜欢剑悟😭😭😭
文戏还是一塌糊涂，令人尴尬。邪恶特利迦是真的帅。
烂，尬，2021年最不幸的是就是追了这部奥特曼，想来根本自平成三部曲后就没看过之后的奥特曼了，奔着新生代迪迦的噱头看完了这部奥特曼，估计以后不会再看任何奥特曼了，曾经的圆谷和我的青春一样回不去了。
除了有些地方为了简化处理太唯心以外没啥大毛病（结尾大战反而不算太唯心），反派要是不疯他的理论我还挺认同的。
一直都挺支持特利迦的，虽然TV剧被骂很惨，平心而论，TV剧是有点尴尬，但是这是我唯一一部每个星期都追的奥特曼。今天看了特别篇，确实不错，就是时间短了一点，很燃！那些只会说剧场版还是不行的人，我真是服了，你来拍一个试试。tv剧已经被久弥直树毁了，武居能把剧情拍成这样不错了，我看过其他新生代的剧场版，个人感觉特利迦这个不错，还有说毁了泽塔，笑死，特利迦能给泽塔一个泽塔篇不错了好吧。
什么叫反向致敬啊（战术后仰（泽宝yyds
自艾克斯之后近几年剧场版最棒的一部，遥辉演技炸裂全场
Je pense a ceux qui doivent en eux trouver quelque chose apres le desenchantement.
天赋耗尽之问，文青幻灭之旅，电影手法相当不错。见长评
特力，加tv剧，要是也能这么拍就不会跌落到5.2的低分
还行吧，早这么拍好不好！
除了泽塔线和部分打戏都比较满意
谁再说你拿的不是女主剧本！Akito！ “俺也一样！”😎
新生代剧场版的平均水平 都可看可不看的 特别之处在于特利迦在剧场版没新形态 邪特真的很帅 缺点就不说了 太多
我感觉比TV好了那么一点，至少反派的理由在我看来是说的过去的。
同样是对迪迦剧情的改编，相比于TV终于交出了一份让人比较满意的答卷，姐夫黑化和剑悟为什么是人类两个点处理的都不错，可惜时长有点少，姐夫的描写太少，就导致他给人感觉像个神棍一样。
在本作中出现了如下角色——泽塔奥特曼、邪恶泽塔奥特曼、特利迦奥特曼、邪恶特利迦奥特曼、黑暗特利迦奥特曼、假面骑士零诺斯。这六个人中有四个人其实是两个人（或者说“有两个人其实是一个人，而这样的人有两个”，对不起我口齿不清了）。
谁再说你拿的不是女主剧本！Akito！ “俺也一样！”😎
还是烂啊虽然没那么尬，属于不看难受，看完更难受那种
