Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Taking Lives is a 2004 crime thriller directed by D. J. Caruso, starring Angelina Jolie, Ethan Hawke and Kiefer Sutherland.Jolie plays FBI Agent Illeana Scott, flown (for puzzling reasons not well explained—although most likely the writers' ignorance of CSIS, the Canadian equivalent of the CIA, or Mountie procedures) into Montreal to assist with the local police's investigation of a murderer. Hawke plays James Costa, a witness to the crime, whom she must protect. The case gets interesting when she deduces that the killer is actually stealing the identities of his victims, making him harder to track. Tchéky Karyo, Olivier Martinez and Jean-Hugues Anglade also star as Montreal police detectives assigned to the case.The film is based on a novel by Michael Pye, but is adapted very loosely. For starters, Jolie's character doesn't appear in the novel.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Subverted with Martin. He slaps around a visibly pregnant Scott, even stabbing her stomach. However, she was never pregnant in the first place, only pretending to be to draw out Martin. | |

Amicable Exes | |
Taking Lives / int_a681bfc6 | comment |
Amicable Exes: It's implied to be averted with Detective Duval and his ex-wife when he jokingly replies to Paquette's comment about her huge breasts, that he (Duval) hoped they drag her down a river to drown. | |

Abusive Parents | |
Taking Lives / int_b11ac9f5 | comment |
Abusive Parents: Rebecca Asher was neglectful towards Martin and clearly favored his twin brother. She even made him stay in her house's dilapidated basement, and forced him to wear unprescribed glasses he didn't even need just so she could tell him apart from his twin. Subverted with Martin. He slaps around a visibly pregnant Scott, even stabbing her stomach. However, she was never pregnant in the first place, only pretending to be to draw out Martin. | |

As Long as It Sounds Foreign | |
Taking Lives / int_e3c20140 | comment |
As Long as It Sounds Foreign: The French actors playing the detectives make no attempt to sound Canadian or emulate a (very distinctive) Quebecois accent. | |
