Many people (especially at that time), point out the bad acting and dialogue delivery. When I initially saw this movie when I was 13, I thought it was genuinely bad acting too, and didn’t really pay attention. Watching it when I’m older, I can’t believe it took me this long to realize Brooke and Chris are speaking like this on purpose. Being stuck on an island as a 7 and 9 year old, no adults around, no older teenagers, no tv or any kind of media to watch and absorb to help one grow more mature, coherent, and “balanced” in their speech pattern. They permanently retained their childlike diction, because there was zero outside influence to help them grow out of it. This is evident in Brooke’s character saying “San Fr’isco” instead of “San Francisco”. She never became grammatically aware enough to pronounce it correctly, even after hearing the word as a child. But apparently, this flew over the heads of pretty much everyone when this film released, and many people today. Some point out it’s just bad acting, and they can still act and speak like a kid and do good acting, like Tom Hanks in Big. Except, Tom didn’t copy child speech. Brooke and Chris here, literally adapted speech articulation of real children, which in turn actually makes it rather authentic to the story. But since a child’s way of talking is considered “flawed” and not how more mature people are supposed to articulate, it evidently translates badly when not coming out from the mouth of an actual child. When coming out of anyone who isn’t that age, it intuitively sounds unnatural, awkward, and very inauthentic. In other words….”bad acting”. It’s not just speech too. It’s body language. The way Brooke emphatically places her hands on her hips for example. She’s overdoing it. Children do this. They over-exaggerate simple movements. It’s really a paradox. It does on the surface SEEM like bad acting. But anyone who has been around your normal 7, 8, or 9 year old, this is similar to how they generally sound. Having these characters speak like regular 15 year olds, growing up in that type of environment, would make absolutely zero sense. A real head scratcher this one.
Yeah, I just saw this movie, and got few interesting insight about how early human basic communication, and question about "finding a god/gods" (early religion development) (imo hehe)

And now here we are in 2021.. That's the beginning of time then progression.
You have enlightened me. Very well thought out observation. I thought they were just a bit silly, when I watched it as a teenager, all those years ago.
Why do people always focus on looks? So what? It's SO superficial. I'd love people to say, she's so moral, clean of thought, word, deed, and act. Now that would be something. She has sucb rare ethical appeal
@@Frankincensedjb123 It is superficial but that's Hollywood for you. Powerful people like Aaron Spelling would cast people solely based on what they looked like. Still many like him out there, but fortunately some of us are becoming more enlightened.

She didnt want him to leave her in the beginning, so that is why she looked concerned, and then since the boat broke down, she she was relieved and that is truly why she laughed.
Reading all the comments it is so strange how many of us have a nice, nostalgic memory about this movie as a child. It is R-rated cinema, yet so many kids found it relatable
The tricky thing when it comes to making movies about teenagers is that teenagers are naturally mischievous. They swear and fight and smoke and drink and fool around, so sometimes in order to truly represent the reality of the teenage experience you have to make it R-Rated. Kind of like the movie Stand By Me, which is also R-Rated but still a very relatable story for kids.
I watched it now for the first time after watching the new blue lagoon on Netflix and totally shocked. Would have been considered child pornographic for sure nowadays
@@silversnail1413 Yeah, adults want to close their eyes and fool themselves into believing their teenager is so innocent. Newsflash: Teenagers are NOT innocent. They weren’t in 1980 when I was 15, and they’re not today. In fact, I’m pretty confident teenagers in the early 80s (like me) were far more wild than teens today.

What's even more bizarre is that he's seen doing it atop a boulder in broad daylight, out towards the open sea. Nowadays with drones and satellites and such, he'd hopefully be much more discreet.

Their supposed to have the same vocabulary as they had when theybwere stranded as children...how were they supposed to verbally mature their tones and words if they were left for themselves

Ms. Shields took the hearts of everyone in this movie, she played an innocent girl marooned on a desert island, along with a companionship. They have a child together, a little boy, while trying to learn the ropes of life's struggle. Your laugh, twist, & turns, look elegant, your acting converses everyone, what their overall symbolic & expressionist standpoint became. Lisa
this was 40 years ago when most people weren't obese or genetically modified by the crap in the food supply. People in general were more attractive in the 70s-80s
"This is where we live. This is our home, now and forever." This line makes me cry It shows what love can do to people One can only starve to death or go mad trying to avoid so but their love makes them not just survive but live a "happy" (at least to them) life together They were pure and innocent children and stayed that way for longer and there were no cell phones or computers back then so their little amount of desire can easily be fulfilled Don't expect their love & relationship to be healthy, expect them to be unusually codependent because they're on their own and they make their own rules that only apply to themselves It's one of the most beautiful films and one of my favorite of all time imo and it really shows how a movie can be an excellent escapism and we audience are like outsiders taking a peek at their lives and the freaking beautiful island
Watching this movie 30 years later, it's like watching a completely different movie. I don't know where modern Cinema is going nowadays, but we definitely lost something really beautiful in the process. I would like have the words to explain what it is, but i don't.
To be honest, I am 17, I watched this movie today and this is my first time watching a movie this old and I wish I could clearly explain the unique feeling too but in layman's terms there's something natural, authentic and human about this movie which just reminds me that there's a reason why hollywood is put on a pedestal even today, as it's certainly not because of the lackluster movies it churns out today. And also there are alot of things associated with this film that are considered inappropriate today, but I couldn't care less about them because this is a generational thing and I am objective enough to realise that people were brought up & adhered by different beliefs than those of today.

1) Are people still not realizing that the way they speak is on purpose ( you expect two people who were washed ashore on this island as literal children with little / no parental figure to know how to articulate words and speak like educated adults? ) - they way they act like children is on purpose 2) YES we know that they're cousins - again, they were kids and grew up with no education on what's right or wrong. their mentality is that of *children*, they don't know how bad or gross incest is, that's the point. 3) Yes, we know the actress was a minor. for god's sake this was released in 1980, it's not like they can change that now. 4) this is a very good movie.
Christopher Atkinson: "I could never be alone on a tropical paradise island with nobody except a teenage Brooke Shields" Every adolescent boy ever: "Bruhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"
I'm surprised they gave it a PG rating here in Australia, and that's for its uncensored version. But then again, the Australian Classification Board is capable of making mistakes here and there. After all, they gave a harmless slice of life anime series like Azumanga Daioh an MA, even though its content equals a PG!
Richard was being so overdramatic lmao. She started it by teasing, he teased back..he threw a coconut and missed, she threw on back at him and didn't miss, he slapped her back and even threw in an insult for good measure. *In my head, they're even steven now.* He didn't have to try and kick her out the house after he got payback... but technically he's probably not mentally older than like 7 so... *But that shit eating smile he gave when he was sitting all comfy while she was cold outside tho... lmao so terrible but kinda realistic. Children really are stubborn like that.*
If I was stranded on a South Pacific Island in the middle of no where with no one ever coming to it, and a teenage Brooke Shields was there with me.............leaving, would NEVER enter my mind.

This film is very well made written and acted. To show children growing up without outside influences is important to remember when seeing them talk and behave, yet somehow nature made them reproduce and instinctively know what to do for the baby. This movie is a classic
The back slap is pretty brutal. You're always going to catch them with you knuckle and probably miss the fleshy part of the cheek and get them in the eye
I'm going to tell you all something that, if you're not old enough to know it's true, you might not believe. But around this time (1980), and even a bit before and after, there was an open, societal perversion concerning young teen sex. Penthouse magazine had a mother/daughter spread of Eva Ionesco, who was 15, and, in 1977 at the age of 13, had done full frontal softcore porn in an Italian film disguised as art. Things toned down a bit after The Blue Lagoon, but we only upped it to High School with movies like Porky's, The Last American Virgin, and a slew of other teen sex exploitation films. It was an odd phenomenon that fostered a strong sense of permissiveness. Teens were boinking hard in the 80's folks. The Blue Lagoon was an influence, as was Endless Love the very next year. Remember: this is what Brooke's mother thought it took to sell her daughter to the industry, and she was right. Brooke was NOT a talented actress, but an amazing model who could act decently enough. It was this atmosphere of teen sexuality, though, that really propelled her to the heights of fame. I think it says a lot about Brooke's strength as a human being that she came through it all to become, in fact, a very good actress, finding an unlikely niche in comedy.
Ah yes.. The Blue Lagoon. The movie you were not allowed to see so instead you watched in secret because "certain scenes" were a bit different than most movies on tv back then. Remember kids.. This was WAY before the internet.

I'm surprised they gave it a PG rating here in Australia, and that's for its uncensored version. But then again, the Australian Classification Board is capable of making mistakes here and there. After all, they gave a harmless slice of life anime series like Azumanga Daioh an MA, even though its content equals a PG!
Did y'all see the porn version with Linda Lovelace, in "Baby Blue Lagogoon?
Jeeeeeeeez, I forgot how cute she was
Yeah she has very pretty eyes and smile.
This is the strangest episode of Gilligan’s Island I’ve ever seen.
1:57 - The replay button you didn't know you needed?
2:04 Sean Connery would be proud
RIP Sean Connery
Ouch.
I don’t get it
Haha I saw that interview for the first time a couple weeks ago
@@ingeniousdepression6436 he said it's OK to slap woman
I am mesmerized by how beautiful Brooke is in this movie.
A SAD CASE OF A MOVIE..
A pretty child you mean.
I forgot how much in love I was with her.....
I love this scene from Top Secret! 😂
Oh Nigel it must have been awful for you...
Nigel:😏
Must have hit your head on a coconut
Richard was being so overdramatic lmao.
She started it by teasing, he teased back..he threw a coconut and missed, she threw on back at him and didn't miss, he slapped her back and even threw in an insult for good measure.
*In my head, they're even steven now.*
He didn't have to try and kick her out the house after he got payback... but technically he's probably not mentally older than like 7 so...
*But that shit eating smile he gave when he was sitting all comfy while she was cold outside tho... lmao so terrible but kinda realistic. Children really are stubborn like that.*
Yeah the 19 year old teased the 14 year old little girl 🤮
Am i the only one who got shocked when he slapped at her then said "i wish you were dead and buried" 😮 that is such a mean thing to say
The people who were not shocked are also the ones okay that these are minors in a s3xual scenario.
It's an amazing movie that most people don't really get the genius behind it all.
The worse thing is when the boat fell to pieces, his pet basketball, Wilson, went overboard.
If I was stranded on a South Pacific Island in the middle of no where with no one ever coming to it, and a teenage Brooke Shields was there with me.............leaving, would NEVER enter my mind.
If I was stranded on a South Pacific Island with 2020 brooke shields, I would to swim to nearest shoreline, or die trying.
Agreed
until you get a toothache or appendicitis
@@Izya_Rabinovich Or until you knock her up a few times and she ends up finally having a difficult birth and dies.
Good point, Andrew.
Brooke Shields was a once in a generation beauty! What is she 50? Still a beauty
55.
Saw her outside NYC restaurant, still statuesquely tall and beautiful
Sorry, but Phoebe was better in Paradise.
More like 57.
@@bminturn Aging is very cruel to women. It's astonishing that something once a miraculous thing of beauty, slowly turns into a decrepit, wrinkled, obese, hideous creature.
Fell in love with Brooke at 12 and she still is amazing even now.
Bro... she's 14 in this 🤢
He likes it younger
Chester.
@@neuguy and he clearly says he was 12! what's the issue? was she too old for him? honestly it's pretty weird when people are so quick to insinuate and make absurd allegations like this... comes across as a bit "projection-ish" 🤔
So? He was 12 genius.@@neuguy
This movie is beautifull
Brooke Shields is so cute
Richard lestrange. Must be Bellatrix grandfather or father.
Isn’t Bellatrix just a Lestrange by marriage?
This film is very well made written and acted. To show children growing up without outside influences is important to remember when seeing them talk and behave, yet somehow nature made them reproduce and instinctively know what to do for the baby. This movie is a classic
It’s disgusting how she was a minor and he was a full adult during this
Actually when this was filmed in 1979, she was 14 and he was 17. So they were both minors.
@@danityvanityinsanity it's still disgusting stop being disgusting.
@@danityvanityinsanity now there weren’t so the math
Do
Weren't they on the show Suddenly Susan when they got older?
This is the greatest movie on earth
Built a boat...a house on stilts....and all you could muster was a dirty rag to cover your backside with??
Ya lol
2 beautiful people..faces are perfect…
The back slap is pretty brutal. You're always going to catch them with you knuckle and probably miss the fleshy part of the cheek and get them in the eye
Richard is the ultimate Anti-Simp 😂😂😂
I’m pretty sure relationships go through all that negativity
“I’ve seen you playing with it” 🥴🥴🥴😏😏 lmfao
the coconut part and the slap 🤣
This was a fantastic movie , must have won every Academy Award! lol
Original.
This movie was weird
@@Srtzzz701yeah. i haven’t seen it, but i saw someone say it has underage nudity?? that’s so disturbing. plus the plot of it is weird too
Wow, what dialogue
The musical version of this movie is set to hit Broadway in the fall of 2024.
Movies like this made people like your parents hit puberty kids, before there was internet.
I watched this movie when i was a kid and i would imagine myself being in the same situation as the guy lol...
ESH. Im on movie trailer spree aswell bro 😆
I Was Laughing My Ass Off When They Were Arguing 😂
It's insane that she was FOURTEEN in this. She's so gorgeous
She called him a silly dodo lmaoo
I remember watching this uncut when I was a young boy. My eyes will never forget.
They ran out of "never-wake-up" berries at my supermarket.
Brook is was and always will be gorgeous 😍
Yes, he is Bellatrix's great-great-great-great-grandfather.
Definitely explains the madness in the family 😆
No. Bellatrix’s family line is Black. She married a Lestrange. Sirius is her cousin.
@@LouieNeira : You're right. I should've said, "Rodolphus".
One of my fav movies ever❤❤
I'm going to tell you all something that, if you're not old enough to know it's true, you might not believe. But around this time (1980), and even a bit before and after, there was an open, societal perversion concerning young teen sex. Penthouse magazine had a mother/daughter spread of Eva Ionesco, who was 15, and, in 1977 at the age of 13, had done full frontal softcore porn in an Italian film disguised as art. Things toned down a bit after The Blue Lagoon, but we only upped it to High School with movies like Porky's, The Last American Virgin, and a slew of other teen sex exploitation films. It was an odd phenomenon that fostered a strong sense of permissiveness. Teens were boinking hard in the 80's folks. The Blue Lagoon was an influence, as was Endless Love the very next year. Remember: this is what Brooke's mother thought it took to sell her daughter to the industry, and she was right. Brooke was NOT a talented actress, but an amazing model who could act decently enough. It was this atmosphere of teen sexuality, though, that really propelled her to the heights of fame. I think it says a lot about Brooke's strength as a human being that she came through it all to become, in fact, a very good actress, finding an unlikely niche in comedy.
She’s amazing on Broadway. Saw her when she was doing a play at Studio 54.
I love the blue lagoon is my favourite romantic movie 🥰🤟
Ok but can we talk about 2:09 and how unrealistically fast he’s throwing her stuff out?
😂 it looks so weird
just cause you dont have 8 arms lol
@Albert Kelly hahaha fair enough!
It's not hard to throw it that fast, you just grab and throw quickly. Lol
@Whoa Momma noooo it’s like a cartoon! lol
Great movie when I was a young teen, those were the days before internet adult content.
this still makes me think of the movie “TOP SECRET!”
Mane it’s PDF all over this film
I don't think I've seen more animosity in 3 minutes
This movie is actually amazing and wholesome af
This stupid awful movie SUCKS. It's just awful on every level.
@thefrontpage Depends on your taste
I forgot about what a great actress she was.
And by "she" I mean Meryl Streep.
@Some One Yes, I think it was his way of insulting Brooke Shields.
Fred
This movie is ridiculous the fact that shield's parents allowed her to star in this as much as many other explicit movies is INSANE
They failed her :(
Ah yes..
The Blue Lagoon.
The movie you were not allowed to see so instead you watched in secret because "certain scenes" were a bit different than most movies on tv back then.
Remember kids.. This was WAY before the internet.
I’m intrigued. What are you talking about?
This was a beautifully made movie & the sequels as well
