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'.

这部影片没有青春片的特点，但全是青春。太不一样了，很惊喜
故事虽然俗套，但每次看到这种真情实感去讲相信奇迹的故事，都会被感动。任何时候，梦想都不会也不应该廉价。
口碑意外的好。算得上是近些年大陆很好的青春爱情片了，出自台湾导演之手。吴磊亲了张子枫后说“如果我可以喜欢你就好了”，就跟《蓝色大门》里一样，是一种身份不确定的试图尝试和自我寻找。陈正道真的很会，掀起了我很多童年青年的伤痛。
脱下长日的假面，奔向梦幻的疆界。有多少人知道五月天的《拥抱》在正式出道前就发表在华语乐坛第一张同志专辑中了呢？陈正道显然是知道的。《拥抱》+大远景中的前任，“现在你知道我的一个秘密了”。看完好像明白了阿信为什么时隔多年再来帮他唱主题曲。盛夏光年未来，但陈正道显然摸透了审查。
可太不勇敢了
成长大概是就坦然接受遗憾。如果那些不能展开的情节展开会更好看。
真的很期待吴磊x张子枫的这部电影，之前看了不少花絮真的kswl，情节上的设计其实最初真的十分有趣，同时把所有的对于自身成长还有情感关系上的一些思考确实都做得很不错，直到我看到了结局，感觉后半段所有的情节都变得敷衍，这个结尾太水了让我本来觉得这是一部8分电影直接我觉得它之后上8分都很困难。郑宇星X陈辰真的不太ok，陈辰感觉也不会幸福。片尾花絮居然比正剧甜一万倍就离谱，他们合唱的那首歌真的好喜欢！因为结局扣1星。
这烂片的高分都刷的吧，对高考态度如此随意还读什么书，早点打工去咯
从故事情节上说，多少都是老调重弹，高考和伤痛的爱情故事。但编剧给这个故事开头就设置了机巧。加上父辈的一锅浑水。就整体看起来还挺有看点。
脱离了《缉魂》《秘密访客》的死妈式lgbt假高潮，而是节奏清朗地讲两个青年人一起找寻彼此成长的青春故事，没有怀念没有舔狗，很好了。吴磊难得地鲜活生动，房间弹吉他对话那整段表演展现出了他平日里难得一见的松弛。
介于男主有G的可能，所以这部片子没有太多感情线，也没有纯聚焦于孩子
难为导演，不知道为啥要被骂，在审查范围内能拍出来实属难得。
前半部分接近完美，松弛而有呼吸。高考催生的畸形法则，反而给家庭“暂时休战”的乌托邦。社交媒介第一次在国产片里有了合理且介入，众人对于二人直播的见证，和观众参与电影形成互文，盘活沉浸感且将语境联结到当下网络时代。盛夏阳光太过耀眼，少年少女的出逃被镀上了失真的梦幻。期待中的未来并不会来，于是“触摸”奇观下，两人完成了关乎“勇敢”的成人礼。结尾泛着柔光的盛夏再度来临，娃娃脸的张子枫留起长发，扮演出的“成熟感”并不真实，却更加把“幻梦感”延续。车上一幕她的目光正视着观众，完成了对于父母、观众的反向凝视，更加加深了观众参与其中的真实感。曾经觉得吴磊帅得太过锋芒、甚至有攻击性。但是在郑宇星这个角色里，他的外表和温柔细腻的内心以一种均衡巧妙的状态容纳一体。两位主演自然清爽又干净的状态令人向往。
回头想，不谈其他维度，男主不喜欢女生的设定，给了全片一个确切的不会终成眷属的结局。一般爱情片无论主动被动，难免留下一个“还有可能”的留白，而像这样明确地杀死爱情，反而加固了电影关于“接受爱而不得”的表达，也让三年后的重逢有了更多成长的意义。
还蛮尴尬的，作为主角的埃尔南戈麦斯这个赛季被交易来交易去，但在电影里却是横空出世的未来名人堂级别的新秀。电影对人物塑造得很好，选择得尺寸也是现在流行得空间型大锋线，有3有D。作为运动电影，很热血，看到那么多篮球运动员，也是非常激动。76人这个管理层，真的不是在影射湖人巴斯家族吗？说不是我都不信。
整个电影充满动感，运动王国的氛围打造得相当真实，不少fancy cut还是能吓你一跳的。可惜故事跳不出俗套，训练过程冗长，显疲态。桑德勒依然不错。
配乐有点对味口~
父母和班主任的镜头也挺不错的
3星半。充满了年轻的躁动，朦朦胧胧纯爱的粉红泡泡，电音的激情，精准对标年轻人市场，但是缺乏更广泛的共鸣，不过是一场年轻的梦。子枫妹妹的定位太模糊了，一会演大人，一会演小孩，对观众来说真的挺难代入的。
好看，陈正道还是会拍这种小情绪的东西～故事还是挺有原创性的。
