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'.

青春に無駄なことなんて何ひとつない！
去年说上一部是近年来最好的，没想到这么快就刷新了。内容主题都异常丰富的一部剧场版，这个推理不比隔壁柯南靠谱吗。校园的问题，等级的冲突，精英教育和自我展现，一一串起来却不说教。日剧跑燃起来了，青春是fire，青春是跟小新一起成长

好，快去吧，新之助，
表达出来的东西实在太多太多，最后以青春收尾是我万万没有想到的，一向懦弱的正男戴上了象征勇气的面具，把鼻涕当做武器的阿呆终于情窦初开，无理取闹的妮妮也担得起团队领导的角色，青春就是试错，是不完美，是大家可以一直在一起。
新酱～风间的心就是想和你永远在一起！！！山无棱，天地合，也不愿分道扬镳。
PS: 蜡笔小新的推理已经超过名侦探柯南剧场版了🤣。
总会有人中途上车 中途下车
风间小新这CP真好嗑
朋友总是会离去，总有那么一天，总有各种各样的事，因为更珍惜，所以才想永远走下去。和你们认识这是第七年了吧，未来能走的多远呢？
跑起来才是蜡笔小新，才是青春啊。
果然如pv的无聊..还是得看23年的剧场版会不会有20年的水准了..
4.5分：蜡笔小新系列最爱的一部！青春是什么东西呢？青春是恋爱，、是分手，青春是孤独、是陪伴，青春是自信、是自卑，青春是满足、是后悔，青春是沉默、是发光，青春是人情道义，是特立独行，青春是狂欢，青春是曾经拥有、是活在当下，青春是…“一千个读者就有一千个哈姆雷特”青春的定义“千奇百怪”正因为各有各的青春才让青春这两个简单的汉字变得意义深刻或一见就笑，或一目潸然，填鸭式教育从某种意义上本就是反人类的教育，如果内卷成为一种狂热一种理所应当，相比最本质的美好也都将烟消云散。孩子永远最真挚，蜡笔小新永远是最好的动画片，实话实说我也经常拘泥于自我内耗慢慢失去了最初对于事物的体验，谢谢小新让我再次反思自己，聆听自己～
想象是无法超越的！跌倒了也是你自己！动漫怎么会一直这么可爱啊！
成为精英真的好吗？人们总想着未来会怎么样，从来没想过当下的生活。
第一部蜡笔小新，没头没脑的恶趣味背后是对当下生活的审视和对快乐的永恒追寻。
这是看过这么多部蜡笔小新系列，最有脑的一部。现实主义，反映当下甚至略超前的社会成长选择，即在充满AI算法和科技大力向前的时代，在教育观成长观上，究竟应当选择超精英教育还是自然教育？小新和他的朋友们给了所有人选项：要青春，要迷茫，要爱，要勇敢，要倔强，要害羞，要孤僻，要不一样…要一切因为爱而自然成长的过程。然而具有讽刺意味的是，一切的一切是小新用屁股思考出的结论。成年人们，你们在想什么？
青春的风景很美好，但赋予他们意义的是我们携手走过留下的痕迹
小新五岁又怎么样，他能永远比你活得明白，为了朋友而努力，美伢广志都为他骄傲。好像他们都很成熟，但看看风间，再怎么样都是五岁的孩子：他偷偷在床头放了一张和妈妈的合照。
我覺得這部劇場版有競爭奧斯卡最佳動畫的潛力....
