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'.

结尾收得过于简单粗暴，如果是一个开放式的结局，或者探讨孤独和压抑的负面情绪相比杀人狂哪个更可怕，个人觉得整体上会更加耐人寻味一些。
作为女性，在陌生的环境中要时刻保持警惕，要相信自己，相信自己的直觉，自救才是第一位的。至于要依赖家人，朋友的帮助，怎么让人相信自己的直觉（无证据），也需要想到一些方法。
瞎扯淡呢！女主被割破脖子，都大出血了，还能拿起枪杀人，并且还和没事一样！这是超人附体了吗？简单的剧情被拖得又臭又长，男主这么高大，却非要显得头脑简单，简直是在诋毁男性的智商。给一颗星吧，也就女主几个镜头比较好看。总结就是强行黑罗马尼亚男性的电影。
4/10。作为悬疑、惊悚片，悬疑感与紧张度完全不够，本来就慢节奏，气氛没有渲染起来只会觉得拖沓。至于故事，更是莫名其妙，罪犯的动机毫无交代，最后的反杀也是令人无语，对别人那么狠，咋对女主就手下留情了呢？
我看到一半以为的《监视者》，男主变了心为了让女主离开他而设了这个局，为了击溃女主的心理防线而设计了各种心理暗示。结果没有料到女主偷偷学了罗马尼亚话，听懂了来找隔壁女人的那个男人砸门时对里面人的提醒而渐渐发现了事情的真相。实际的《监视者》，男主：我是谁，我在哪？
所以说男人们为什么总是否定女人的直觉！！！！
很精致的一部惊悚片，但应该女性更能理解这其中的惊悚元素吧…
把女性特有的“一惊一乍”悬惊感拍出来了，就很好。然后，死活想不起来男反在“权游”里演的是谁了……
氛围很到位，想起来之前看过的《84年夏天》，差不多的剧情，都很简单，很有意思
敢不敢大胆一些，别设定一个双商下线的丈夫角色来拖延剧情，或者就是女主的一场臆想最后杀了无辜的邻居。电影不能求鱼得鱼！
整个电影噱头十足，罗马利亚压抑沉闷的社会环境，金发美女的搏动，女人的直觉，但是各方面缺乏深度，本可以在悬疑上面再下一翻功夫，失望了
命案频发心胆栗，说与丈夫总不信。
一部女性看了会提心吊胆的电影。每次只要想到哪个情节都可能成真，我就心里一咯噔。
女性遇到恶意骚扰后的困境是，你太漂亮他只是喜欢你，或者你（不漂亮）太敏感了。
开篇觉得拍的不行演的不行剪的不行故事也不行，逐渐觉得演的还行，b级惊悚小片拍的也还凑合，剪的也还凑合，故事甚至也算能看了。。尤其最后的装死（虽然很大可能这算是设计的反转）但我真是一直从很早之前就想什么被勒脖子，被打晕，被嗨，总之不是被一枪爆头这种死的不能再彻底的，都可以先装自己死了啊，完事再趁对方放松警惕反杀，可是电影里尤其是勒脖子这一手勒到发现你不动了就放松大喘气、这时候趁机反杀啊真的是，最最后结尾的凝视也不错，无论看不看观众这些都算是小伎俩了可以，介于最近没看啥好片，正常很勉强还行的片子我打算给个日后再看
这剧看完就跟白开水一样平淡，还有几个血压高的地方，一个是跟踪变态男那里，二是女主遇到这样问题问男主怎么解决说不知道。
氛围真的拍的不错。视角让人代入。就是稍微有点容易猜到剧情发展。然后剧情上有些地方还不够真实。
丈夫、邻居、警察都无法理解女主的恐惧。谁能想到呢，半个世纪前铅黄片只是一种低俗的噱头，时至今日却成为现实主义电影了。
剧情比较老套，比较拖沓，好在摄影和惊悚效果还不错，悬念还是有的，不至于看不下去，突出了女权主义，充分利用大场景形成了一种空洞感，跟影片主题蛮贴合的，女主神经病气息在大场景下的确是孤身一人，寻求不到任何的帮助，作死的成分也是很突出的，渣男当你是妄想症，你把自己当作神经病，别人把你当做笑话，凶手才把你当人看，其实每个人都是神经病，只是方式方法不同而已。
一直在等待惊吓，大部分都在失望，最后10分钟可以了。
