Taglines:
* A story of natural love.
* Two children shipwrecked alone on a tropical island. Nature is kind. They thrive on the bounty of jungle and lagoon. The boy grows tall. The girl beautiful. They swim naked over coral reefs. They run in a cathedral of trees. And the warm winds, the tropic moon, the silk sand conspire to enchant them. When their love happens, it is natural as the sea, and as powerful. Love as nature intended to be.
Trivia:
Lori Loughlin and Matt Dillon were the original stars offered the lead roles in the teen romance “The Blue Lagoon” (1980), the film went on to make household names of Brooke Shields and Christopher Atkins. “Eight is Enough” TV Star Willie Aames was also considered for the Christopher Atkins role but missed out and wound up in the knock-off flick “Paradise” (1982) co-starring Phoebe Cates. Also of interest is that John Travolta's wife Kelly Preston auditioned for the Brooke Shields role.
