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'.

智商不够没看懂，只知道为母报仇没成功，那张母亲撕下来的纸也没起到关键作用啊
6分真的不能再高了…剧本有问题，导演的“碗”其实就没有扣住主题，人物刻画上很法国，身份上的落差并没有表现的很突出，两人的爱情很炙热，但是艺术上没啥升华…就是一部很过时的影片。
整个片子很乱，时间空间错乱的手法，主题表达不明显，恐怖的地方一错乱就失去恐怖感了。主角除了多命体质没啥突出地方。
【D-】低级惊吓桥段合辑，故弄玄虚的叙事更是惨不忍睹。
一惊一乍的，剧情单一，场景简单。怪不得只有个5分的样子。
俗套而狗血的爱情故事，这两个人真是没有什么火花。
多重人格的恶鬼，利用恶魔的低语，杀害一个又一个的人。
墨迹，垃圾，故弄玄虚，竟然一直黑黑黑，我都无语了
整部剧这么黑，啥都看不清，不恐怖，故事线也奇奇怪怪_(:з」∠)_浪费时间
编剧这样瞎编，编故事前都不看看百度百科吗。很狗血的爱情故事，婚外情全被写的很唯美，难已置信，三观不正。反而全片没有太多描写埃菲尔铁塔。
还行吧！小时候第一次知道埃菲尔铁塔还是在又见一帘幽梦😂
至2022年2月25日，豆瓣有921人标记看过，6.1分。逻辑不顺畅和说不通的地方有几个，但总体来说故事还算有趣，有点《两杆大烟枪》盖里奇的味儿。这电影必须熬过前40分钟，故事才有点看出眉目。
法国人，你老老实实地拍Eiffel怎么攻克难关修塔，比你加这么多感情戏要好得多，白浪费这么好的题材了
没啥意思，但是和我妈打赌结局，赢了一百块钱💰
电影相比文字缺少想象的空间，但是我却愿意通过电影来看这本书，两小时之内一目了然，比看完一本书需要的时间肯定短而且不会断断续续。现实比小说更离奇，小说终究不是现实，同样的话也可以放在小说和电影上。
各种元素都有出现，丧尸感都出来了，开始以为时空穿越，两拨人遇见，后来觉得嗯第一波可能是死了，后来又发现男主也是死了，鬼鬼窝里斗，然后男主妹妹也来了估计也是个死，谁都逃不出。
结局就那样嘛，看一群鬼在那里以为自己是人的角色扮演
不同的时间线遇见相同的鬼，本身的叙事设定相比其他恐怖片好不少，但效果没有发挥到极致
无论何时何地，只要你愿意回头，就能看到我在你身后默默守候。
就是，大楼里的一个女孩被杀了之后，所有进入大楼的人都会被封印在里面，死了也不知道自己死了，一直在大楼里重复死亡前在大楼经历的全过程。驱魔师只会拿着金刚杵挥来挥去，丝毫没有战斗力更别说法力。所以最后也被封印了……我寻思他进去不就是为了超度里面的地缚灵吗，结果栽跟头了……最佳演出应该是灯光，全片灯光就没停过，一直闪吧闪吧的都快瞎了，还好是大半夜看，不然黑灯瞎火的根本看不清。整个过程非常无聊，剧情进展超级缓慢，没有什么高潮跌宕，平平无奇，不推荐。啥时候韩国恐怖片才能回归上个世代的巅峰呀
