1990

Vandag, in 1990 is hierdie portretskildery van Dr. Gachet deur Vincent van Gogh vir die destydse rekordbedrag van $82 500 000 van die hand gesit.

Egter seker 'n minderheid wat daarvan sou gepraat het. Op ons lippe, destyds, was seker eerder die selfmoord van die pedofiel, Gert van Rooyen, na hy sy medepligtige, Joey Haarhoff, om die lewe gebring het.

Dit was 'n gebeurtenisvolle jaar:  Nelson Mandela is vrygelaat, PW Botha het bedank, Dirk Coetzee getuig oor Vlakplaas voor die Harms-kommissie, Suid-Wes-Afrika verkry onafhanklikheid van die VN en die Suid-Afrikaanse magte begin uit die land onttrek.

In die flieks kon ons wegkom van alles wat in die land en om ons gebeur het. Gewilde flieks, daardie jaar, was:  Goodfellas, Edward Scissorhands, Home Alone, Pretty Woman, The Godfather: Part III, Die Hard 2, The Hunt for Red October, Dances with Wolves, Kindergarten Cop, en Bird on a Wire.
