Nobody Wanted to Die (Lithuanian: Niekas nenorėjo mirti, Russian: Никто не хотел умирать) is a 1966 Lithuanian film made in Soviet Lithuania and directed by Vytautas Žalakevičius. Žalakevičius, actor Donatas Banionis, and cinematographer Jonas Gricius were awarded USSR State Prize for the film in 1967. Controversial by modern point of view due to its rather positive depiction of pro-Soviet activists, it is still considered by many as one of, if not the best Lithuanian film ever made.[citation needed]
