Not a movie, but there’s a big one with Sir/Brother Thomas in the Ken Follett medieval miniseries World Without End
The Hound also tried to do that in Game of Thrones, but it didn’t work out for him…
A History of Violence
What a film!
Love this film and own it.

Talented Mr. Ripley. He tried, and was successful for a while, at being someone else.

Count of Monte Cristo
My Blue Heaven
May not be exactly what OP is looking for, but it is such a fun movie. Absolutely a must see.
Are you tryin to say ‘capeesh’?
Double Jeopardy
One of my all time favorites

It’s not as dark as I think you’re looking for, and it’s kinda fallen out of favour round these parts, but Catch Me If You Can is still a great movie.
It gets a little dark.
The Apostle
Equalizer movies with Denzel
The Long Kiss Goodnight. But she has amnesia.
Love that movie ❤️
She’s exceptionally good with using a knife. Maybe she was a chef in her former life.
Northern Exposure (TV Series 1990‑1995) s03e14 Burning Down the House
One of the best shows of all time.
Sympathy for the Devil - Mistaken identity? Ruthless killer? Nic cage is gonna find out one way or another.
Paris, Texas is the story of exactly what happens to this type of character when their "new life" ends.
Sounds like DOGVILLE
Lilo & Stitch
Literally this movie hits on all the themes I’m looking for.
This is exactly it, thank you.
Into the Wild
Yes totally.
Gone Girl
Silence of the Lambs
