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'.

就影片整体而言非常平庸，所呈现的时代感算是为数不多的亮点。对劳模姐来说这个造型真是反差到挺看不出来的，她的表演也配得上这部奥系女主片其他闲杂人等的陪衬，明天就看是劳模还是骚潘喜提影后了。
有些浪费了这个选材，主要是两个方面的缺失：1）缺乏对Tammy的核心定义，真心肯定她的流行文化影响，抑或是嘲弄于她的天真和并不完美的婚姻，更或是去回溯她的身份与位置，却能够对LGBT、艾滋、贫困等社会事务的包容？只是把这些故事讲了，所以到最后人物并没有那么生动。2）类似的剧情化探索在HBO的《布道家庭》有稍微做过，近来也有很出色的纪录片；但这里却风格不明，时而是《致命女人》年代向喜剧，时而是音乐片，白浪费劳模亲自献唱的努力。因为不再是自己过往熟稔的“shero”型角色，她重新去改变并添加了能把观众逗乐的理解；即使妆造杂糅Kris Jenner、Katherine Heigl…一干人等，围绕着角色的所有努力依然成立。
至于剧本和电影本身确实不太行，看完之后依旧不太了解塔米菲这个人，只能说主角和妆发增添了太多色彩。
影片情节并不引人入胜，查斯坦扮演的塔米费的演技惊人，跨度非常大，但极其自然，拿到奥斯卡实至名归。
支持同性恋性少数群体的福音派基督徒？判120年刑的前夫又出来主持节目了？这都怎么肥四啊我晕。
一个女明星，本不长这样，却动手抢其他外形稍逊的胖女人的角色，把自己脸型贴成这样，极尽用力过猛之能事，拍这种showy但又臭又长完全不知所云的好粉丝类glamorous传记电影，就是为了骗那尊小像。之前有某位影后也有这种化妆抢胖子角色的新闻好在后来角色又交回胖姐儿手里人家获得了认可。没想到这种事会发生在自己喜欢的演员身上，制片的还是她自己鼓吹“为更多各色少数群体/女性提供平台”的公司。我只感觉虚伪与羞耻。【qrbt之王龟头小二真的不能看了，已产生生理不适，口区
竟然是星际穿越的墨菲。妆发完全没看出来，年龄感历史感都在，反而是jim很古怪地一直年轻着。大体量的故事才能塞进时间的流逝感，oscar蛮值的。但有些镜头实在是怪异：幼时被上帝附身？的情节看起来像是癔症发作；小猪起泡液的头被拧下的特写感觉是惊悚预告；与不同男性的肢体接触特写仿佛要说什么但后续并未言及；孩子们几乎没有存在感。
劳模姐演得确实很好，电影还是很感人，虽然是奥系样板作品。
和《梅艳芳》一样都是流水账式的传记片，当然编剧肯定高了不止一个档次，化妆也是相当厉害，但问题其实都差不多，即传记片的主人公本身的复杂性体现不足，关键年份点的选取和素材的编织以及人物特性背后的深层次原因都没有做过多的深挖，塔米菲的浓妆和她的信仰是能理解为一种“空洞”的体现，但我总觉得她不应该只有空洞而已吧
看到后面有点惊到了，她真信上帝的?？我还以为只是获得关注,谋生敛财的手段嘞。
流畅的剧本，一气呵成的故事，其中的转折不显突兀，贵在导演没刻意的卖惨
传记电影，利用宗教福音敛财tammy faye baker，电影拍得中规中矩，看得出更多的是为了劳模姐的表演定制的好莱坞八股文，设置基本都为了女主的发挥，劳模姐本身也不负众望，把一个将信仰，爱情，美丽，野心能一股脑和上帝的爱联系在一起的女人演得挺扎眼。可惜这电影本身在福音敛财和tammy faye内心变化上没花什么心思，一切都在表面，略流水账。不过看今年这个提名，就暗处的女儿可以拼一下，劳模有望封后。
开头有点喜欢，后面非常厌恶男女主角，厌恶整个电影，觉得两个演员长得也很讨厌。
ummmm作画精良了观感却没以前看的版本那么好 最后出木衫君的表情笑死www
非常平庸的传记片，劳模演的确实不错但剧本没有深挖角色
7/10.
劳模表演是真的赞，故事嘛……对我们这种真正的共产主义者（doge）来说，所有宗教题材都麻麻的。
情节低龄，主题混乱，配色炸眼。
唯一一个值得夸赞的地方，太空坦克大战的画面居然比垃圾快餐星球大战拍的还有意思！
被母亲忽视?被男权打压?婚内出轨?老公深柜?被对手搞垮? 想说的挺多,啥也没说清，可怜劳模姐只能卖力学学怪异笑声,唱唱歌(竟然唱得还挺好~)。
