The Blue Lagoon (1980)

[SlidePocket 707]

14-year-old Brooke Shields and 18-year-old Christopher Atkins play kids who become stranded on a tropical island with their older shipmate, the shipmate dies, the kids grow up and become hormone-crazed teens where they declare their love for each other. Most notable for the amount of body doubles used for the nude scenes considering that Shields was underage at the time.

 

Though critically panned, it was a box office hit and later spawned an even worse sequel in 1991 called "Return to the Blue Lagoon" starring a 15-year-old Milla Jovovich and Brian Krause from "Sleepwalkers" fame.

Two cents: So I've only watched it twice, the first time in a very edited form on TBS or TNT as a teen, and then the full movie later on in college. I wasn't impressed with either version. It seemed like it was just a thing because of Brooke's age and because the characters were cousins.
