I expect that Kodak Gold is balanced for daylight and you were using tungsten lighting indoors which has a lower (colour) temperature than daylight and therefore looks less white, more yellow. Paradoxically, a lower temperature is often referred to as warmer light.

I took several pics indoors at Christmas with my OM-2S with 50mm f/1.4, using
Kodak Gold 200 without flash. Every one of them has a yellow cast to it. The flash pics all turned out fine. Any ideas as to why the yellow tone?
Incandescent lighting?  Is that why they call it "Gold"???
