Big Eyes (2014)
Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Tim Burton
Starring: Amy Adams, Christoph Waltz, Danny Huston, Krysten Ritter
As Margaret and Walter Keane are given the task to paint a painting of Margaret's unique style, it becomes clear that Margaret always told the truth. She wins the case in all points, though Walter continues to deny his ex-wife's claims until his death in 2000.

Factual error: In the opening scenes where Margaret drives to San Francisco, her car is an early 50s Meteor. Meteors were a Ford Motor Company brand just above Ford (a bit like Mercury) but were sold only in Canada. Meteors often were only rebadged Fords, like this early 50s model. The rest of 50s and 60s car choices in the film seemed perfect.
Walter Keane: Would you rather sell a $500 painting, or a million cheaply reproduced posters? See, folks don't care if it's a copy.
