The Devil's Bride is the long awaited film version of the classic folk tale Baltaragio Malunas, by Kazys Boruta. Lithuania's most popular film and first movie musical, its catchy melodies combine traditional folk motifs with a rock-and- roll rhythm that dazzles and enchants. Spirited and emotional, The Devil's Bride tells the supernatural story of an impish devil who used to be an angel but got tired of singing Hosannah and so was condemned to live on earth. From his home in a windmill, he pursues love and happiness in a hilarious and sometimes tragic turmoil that affects the whole countryside.

I saw this film for about 4 times , and it is the best ever made movie. It can't be added to any of movie types there are a lot of fun, drama, some fantastic scenes. This movie is one of such as You can not just see it for one time, You must see it for couple of times and it gives to You a lot of joy...

Movie is fun, has some great and funny scenes, good soundtrack. However this is no masterpiece as some tend to make it. Film has no depth, characters are one noted, some scenes are very repetitive, draged on and maybe even random - without much connection. In other cases there are big time jumps that are not explained or motivated by anything - audience is just suppose to go with it.

In short, this is a great movie for Lithuanian standards and taking into account when it was released. However, in the whole movie industry context this is just above average.
