简介: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'.  Roger Philip Mellor

简介:国共合作的北伐战争后期的1927年,蒋中正为代表的国民党新军阀背叛国民革命的迹象日益明显。他在一次集会上发表“训话”,表明反共倾向,还让时任国民革命军总政治部中将副主任的郭沫若拿着扩音喇叭对他的每句话重复一遍,郭沫若很愕然。他对时任国民革命军上将总司令的老蒋的发言很不理解。 蒋中正在庐山召集党政军知名人士开会,孙夫人宋庆龄和廖夫人何香凝也应邀参加。会上,老蒋要解除苏俄特使鲍罗廷的职务,遭到宋庆龄和何香凝的反对,国民党左派领袖邓演达(中国农工民主党的创始人)也不赞成,而且还谢绝了老蒋要将邓演达升职的意见。郭沫若在化妆舞会上鄙视老蒋及其追随者,宣称:我是偶像的崇拜者,也是偶像的破坏者。 郭沫若耳闻目睹蒋中正、杨虎勾结反动势力,绞杀工农运动。郭老曾去总司令部向老蒋请示法办欺压工农的豪绅恶霸,竟遭到拒绝;后来杨虎竟然干涉郭老与部下支持工农、逮捕劣绅的行动,后来还杀害了工农领袖。郭沫若曾经想动员第七军军长、桂军首领李宗仁将军倒蒋,可是未成功。有几个细节值得注意,郭老在俩政治部的警卫跟随下去总司令部找老蒋惩办豪绅,进门时由于匆忙未能给门口敬礼的两位卫兵还礼,出门时因为气愤,又没敬礼。后来找李宗仁,开始也是由于心急没敬礼,但是出门时由于对李宗仁还怀有希望、对俩卫兵的敬礼还礼了。这是我多次对这几个细节观察思考后的看法。郭老忿然在1927年3月写下了《请看今日之蒋介石》,指出他已不是北伐军的总司令,而是一切反动势力的代表。 国民党军阀终于向人民举刀,郭沫若向周恩来表示:要跟着共产党走。老蒋在南京建立了代表帝国主义、官僚资本主义和封建势力利益的‘国民政府’。1927年8月,郭沫若加入南昌起义部队组建的第二方面军,在南下途中加入中国共产党。他宣称,女神的时代已经过去,要迎接新的曙光。
