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'.

无脑但出乎意料地没有成为烂片，出其不意加一星
多少年了老美的校园青春剧还是好看啊！一贯的happy ending，直接带着观众重返千禧年哈哈
作为一个法科生很难不全程分心想双胞胎和背后主谋的故意伤害罪……
选角鬼才，这几个妖艳鬼物到底哪里来的😂值得一提绝对的政治正确，娘娘腔，同性恋，移民，黑人，肥婆……
Yes we need a closure, and more, we need a fresh start.
像小熊维尼里的粉色小猪🐷。好可爱笑喜我啦！
满分10分给5分，名字叫毕业季实际上和毕业没多大关系。剧情很老套，也没什么笑点。有一些对zzzq的讽刺，不过很浅显。
惊了！rebel wilson竟然这么瘦了？？！
不要看！！！！！！！
剧情还是比较套路+zzzq的。男主寻找自己真正的死因，绕了一圈，从责怪周围人责怪这个世界，到最后发现是自己一直被困在了自己的世界。小林真就是小白，这个从头就知道，但展现的很不错。故事的感情流让人满意。

很老套的剧情，很经典的美国校园生活。还可以吧，打发时间看看，女主勇气可嘉。
除了女主个性自信的魅力之外，很无聊的电影。
表演中摔伤昏迷20年后的啦啦队长，回到高中誓要夺回本该属于自己的舞会皇后！最终明白，要过上幸福的完美生活，不是啦啦队长和舞会皇后能解决的！
不用带脑子看的轻松欧美校园电影，女主心态真的有够强大的
20年后醒过来。。这也是可以……看到了我们这一天的奶爸，就略怪
把人摔成这样不用负法律责任也太离谱了吧，前面情节好无聊，后面还算有趣点
天 比意料中好看太多
真的是难看 没新意就算了 即便是20年前的青春片都比这要好吧 不多吐槽 这部真是浪费时间
千禧年的流行音乐回忆，完美致敬 Britney！
