Queen Victoria's Sixty Glorious Years
PRODUCED entirely in technicolor, x “Sixty Glorious Years” reunites Anna Neagle and Anton Walbrook. the stars of “Victoria the Great.” “Sixty Glorious Years,” which has been produced on a magnificent scale, presen! s the life of the great Queen from a domestic viewpoint. The panorama of brilliant spectacles and Iramatic and romantic events of this period in Britain’s history have been welded into the story.
The entire film has been produced on a scale commensurate with the story value, and the romance surrounding the Queen’s marriage, the tragic international affairs, which darkened her reign, yet emphasised her great fortitude, and the delightful human incident infused into the narrative are said to add much to the brilliant effectiveness of the entire production. No effort has been spared to assure the authenticity of the backgrounds, and the locales of Buckingham Palace and Balmoral Castle, among others, hitherto never before seen on the screen, add considerably to the atmosphere of the story. One of the highlights is the opening of the Crystal Palace, which has been apparently reconstructed in a remarkable manner.
