Rijk de Gooyer , internationally also Ryk de Gooyer (born December 17, 1925 in Utrecht , † November 2, 2011 in Amsterdam ) was a Dutch actor , writer , columnist and singer .

Live and act

De Gooyer was born an identical twin into a Calvinist family. In the spring of 1945 he joined the Dutch Liberation Army and, as he spoke Dutch, English and French as well as German, he was used by the British occupiers as an interpreter . He was present when the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp was liberated and, according to his own statements, claims to have also been involved in the arrest and interrogation of Heinrich Himmler . He then worked in his father's bakery.

De Gooyer started his artistic career in 1948 as an assistant reporter for the Dutch radio NCRV , before turning to theater acting the following year. Rijk de Gooyer began his stage career at the ABC Cabaret, after which he was also engaged in other cabaret theaters and in classical spoken theater. De Gooyer was initially preferred in the comedic subject, from 1952 onwards numerous offers from Dutch television were added. In 1959 the slim artist went to Berlin to study at the UFA film school. As a direct result, the almost perfect German-speaking de Gooyer received a small film role at the side of Curd Jürgens in Gerd Oswald's adaptation of Stefan Zweig's novella . Almost at the same time he worked temporarily in East Berlin as assistant director at the theater. He is said to have been recruited and paid for by the CIA to obtain information about the communist SED regime .

However, the cinema only gained importance in de Gooyer's career from the late 1960s. “In front of the camera he practically covered the entire range of roles; he played the little crook like the Nazi and apartheid henchman, the bored middle-class citizen like the established affluent philistine, the simple police officer like the clever city inspector. Rijk de Gooyer appeared sporadically in German television productions; For example, he was seen in 1982 as Schimanski's Dutch colleague in the Tatort episode, Stuffed Animals . In the same year he was awarded the national film prize Golden Calf for his complete work. There were other Golden Calves for his performance in Hoogste tijd and in 1999 in Madelief: Krassen in het tafelblad .

Rijk de Gooyer has also worked as a writer and columnist (in the Haagse Post ) and also appeared as a singer. In 1967 he landed a chart hit with Johnny Kraaykamp with the song De Bostella : for two weeks in December of the same year, the duo took first place.
