Piecing together someone's life
A small list of films/shows that focus on our main character having to piece together the life of another person.
Bonus points if, while piecing together the person's life, the main character discovers that the person is nothing like what they originally thought.
Preferably films where the main character goes around trying to learn about the person, and then the audience are shown flashback sequences about the person.
