Sixty Glorious Years

“In 1937 Victoria the Great was such a huge success that the following year Wilcox ‘remade' it on a larger scale as Sixty Glorious Years, covering some of the same ground, but starting later in Victoria's reign, and also covering such events as the Charge of the Light Brigade and Gordon at Khartoum. In the Forties, both films were somewhat clumsily squashed together into a third version called merely Queen Victoria. Tonight's film is a fourth and quite unofficial version: Sixty Glorious Years intact, into which we have intercut the lengthy opening of the first film and sundry other highlight scenes from that film to give you the ‘definitive' version, telling you more about Victoria and Albert than you probably need to know.” --W.K. Everson
