Descending ever lower into the mire of popular
culture, how about Total Recall, where Arnold
Schwartzenegger's character is a sort of Doppelganger
of himself, his memory/personality having been erased
and re-programmed.
His eventual realisation of this fiendish plot due to
the resurfacing of 'real' memories prompts the classic
po-mo update of the cogito: 'If I'm not me, who the
hell am I?'.
