Sixty Glorious Years is a 1938 British colour film directed by Herbert Wilcox.[3] The film is a sequel to the 1937 film Victoria the Great.[4]
The film is also known as Queen of Destiny in the US.[5]
Kinematograph Weekly reported the film did well at the British box office in December 1938.[6]
The Radio Times gave the film 3 out of five stars, calling it "old-fashioned, four-square, and very nice";[4] and TV Guide also gave the same rating, calling the film "an unnecessary, but worthwhile, sequel to the epic screen biography Victoria the Great (1937)... As was the case in Victoria the Great, Wilcox's production values are superlative, with the sets and costumes accurate reproductions of the actual items which are housed at the British Museum. The American public was so interested in both the Queen Victoria films that RKO and Wilcox formed a contract that ensured distribution of British films in the U.S. and an exchange of American and British talent for various productions. This led to husband and wife Wilcox and Neagle's next project, Nurse Edith Cavell (1939), which was produced in Hollywood."[7]
