The James Bond film Licence to Kill is released. Unknown to anyone at the time, its release would be followed by years of legal wrangling over the future of the popular film series. The next Bond film, GoldenEye, will not be released until 1995. While still considered parts of the same series, Licence to Kill is considered the last of the "old-style" Bond films as produced since 1962.
Screen and stage legend Lord Laurence Olivier appered in his last filmed role before his death in 1989 as an old soldier in War Requiem
