Gold is a 2016 American crime drama film directed by Stephen Gaghan. It stars Matthew McConaughey, Édgar Ramírez, Bryce Dallas Howard and Corey Stoll. Its Loosely Based On A True Story, specifically that of the 1993 Bre-X mining scandal, when a massive gold deposit was supposedly discovered in the jungles of Indonesia, but for legal reasons (and to enhance the appeal of the film), character names and story details were changed.Kenny Wells (McCounaughey), a prospector desperate for a lucky break, teams up with a similarly eager geologist, Michael Acosta (Ramírez) and sets off on a journey to find gold in the uncharted jungle of Indonesia.

Ambiguous Situation: While the film ends with Wells and Key on friendly terms it’s left uncertain if they will get back together. It’s uncertain who sent Wells the check for $82 million, although it’s implied to be Mike, it’s also plausible it could have been someone else on Mike’s behalf.

Loosely Based On A True Story: As mentioned, it is based on a real life story, with names changed to hide it. You can still note it, however: Wells is a replacement for a real life person named Walsh, Michael Acosta is one for Michael de Guzmán, and so on.
