The Blue Lagoon / Return to the Blue Lagoon

This double feature of shipwrecked young love follows sets of children on a deserted island, forced to make a life together. In The Blue Lagoon (Brooke Shields, Christopher Atkins, 1980/104 min), two children are left alone on an island paradise after their ship, bound for San Francisco, explodes, and struggle to cope with maturity and loneliness. Then, in Return to the Blue Lagoon (Brian Krause, Milla Jovovich, 1991/102 min), the original couple’s son suffers a similar fate on an island with a like-minded teenage girl. Color/R/fullscreen.
