In the early Victorian period, two young cousins, Richard (Glenn Kohan) and Emmaline LeStrange (Elva Josephson), and a galley cook, Paddy Button (Leo McKern), survive a shipwreck in the South Pacific and reach a lush tropical island. Paddy cares for the children and forbids them by "Law" from going to the other side of the island, as he had found remains from bloody human sacrifices on an altar. He also warns them against eating a deadly scarlet berry.

Several years later, Paddy dies after a drunken binge. Now alone, the children go to another part of the island and rebuild their home.

Years pass and they grow into tall, strong teenagers. They live in their hut, spending their days fishing, swimming and diving for pearls. Richard and Emmaline (now portrayed by Christopher Atkins and Brooke Shields) begin to fall in love. This is stressful for them, because of their lack of education on human sexuality. Emmaline is frightened by her first menstrual period; she refuses to allow Richard to inspect her for what he imagines is a wound. Richard becomes physically attracted to Emmaline, but she does not reciprocate his feelings, inciting Richard to go off alone and masturbate.

A ship appears for the first time in years, but Emmaline does not light the signal fire. As a result, the ship passes by without noticing them. When Richard angrily confronts Emmaline about this, she tells him that the island is their home now and they should stay, to Richard's disbelief.

Emmaline secretly ventures to the forbidden side of the island and sees the altar. She associates the blood on the altar with the blood of Christ's crucifixion. She comes to the conclusion that the altar is God, and tries to persuade Richard to go to the other side of the island to pray with her. Richard is shocked at the idea of breaking the Law. They insult each other and Emmaline reveals she knows about his masturbating and threatens to tell her Uncle Arthur about it. They throw coconuts at each other and she hits him on the head. Following the fight, Richard kicks Emmaline out of their hut.

Emmaline accidentally steps on a stonefish. Sick and weak, she pleads with Richard to "take her to God." Richard carries her to the other side of the island and places her on the altar, offering a prayer to God. Emmaline recovers and Richard admits his fear of losing her.

After Emmaline regains her ability to walk, they go skinny dipping in the lagoon and then swim to shore. Still naked, Richard and Emmaline discover sexual intercourse and passionate love. They regularly make love from then on. Emmaline becomes pregnant. Richard and Emmaline are stunned when they feel the baby move inside her and assume that it is her stomach causing the movements.

Emmaline gives birth to a baby boy, whom they name Paddy. Emmaline holds him and learns how to feed him as the baby instinctively starts suckling. The young parents teach Paddy how to swim, fish and build things.

A ship led by Richard's father Arthur (William Daniels) approaches the island and sees the family playing on the shore. When they notice the ship, they walk away instead of signaling for help, content with their lives. As they are covered in mud, their appearance is difficult to determine and Arthur assumes that they are natives.

One day, the family takes the lifeboat to visit their original homesite. Richard goes off and finds bananas for them, leaving Emmaline and Paddy with the boat. Emmaline does not notice when Paddy brings a branch of the scarlet berries into the boat. Emmaline and Paddy slowly drift away and Paddy tosses one of the oars out. Unable to reach the oar, Emmaline shouts to Richard and he swims to her, followed closely by a shark. Emmaline throws the other oar at the shark, striking it and giving Richard time to get into the boat. They are unable to retrieve the oars without risking a shark attack. They paddle with their hands to no avail; the boat is caught in the current and drifts out to sea.

After drifting for days, Richard and Emmaline awake to find Paddy eating the berries he had picked. Hopeless, Richard and Emmaline eat the berries as well, lying down to await death. A few hours later, Arthur's ship finds them. Arthur asks, "Are they dead?" The captain (Gus Mercurio) answers, "No, sir. They're asleep."

The movie was a passion project of Randal Kleiser, who had long admired the original novel. He hired Douglas Day Stewart, who had written The Boy in the Plastic Bubble, to write the script and met up with Richard Franklin, the Australian director, who was looking for work in Hollywood. This gave him the idea to use an Australian crew, which Franklin helped supervise.

The film was shot in Jamaica and Nanuya Levu, a privately owned island in Fiji. The flora and fauna featured in the film includes an array of animals from multiple continents. As it turned out, the iguanas filmed on Fiji were a species hitherto unknown to biologists; this was noted by the herpetologist John Gibbons when he watched the film and after traveling to the island where the iguanas were filmed, he described the Fiji crested iguana (Brachylophus vitiensis) in 1981. The lagoon scenes were shot in Comino Island, Malta and Champagne Bay, Vanuatu.

All of Brooke Shields' nude scenes were performed by the film's 32-year-old stunt coordinator, Kathy Troutt. Shields did many of her topless scenes with her hair glued to her breasts. Atkins appeared nude (including frontal nudity) in the film.

Underwater moving picture photography was performed by Ron and Valerie Taylor.

Critical reception

The Blue Lagoon was panned by critics. It holds a score of 9% on Rotten Tomatoes out of 22 reviews. Among the more common criticisms were the ludicrously idyllic portrayal of how children would develop outside of civilized society, the unfulfilled buildup of the island's natives as a climactic threat and the way the film, while teasing a prurient appeal, conspicuously obscures all sexual activities. Roger Ebert gave the film 1½ stars out of 4, claiming that it "could conceivably have been made interesting, if any serious attempt had been made to explore what might really happen if two 7-year-old kids were shipwrecked on an island. But this isn't a realistic movie. It's a wildly idealized romance, in which the kids live in a hut that looks like a Club Med honeymoon cottage, while restless natives commit human sacrifice on the other side of the island." He also deemed the ending a blatant cop-out. He and Gene Siskel selected the film as one of their "dogs of the year" in a 1980 episode of Sneak Previews. Time Out commented that the film "was hyped as being about 'natural love'; but apart from 'doing it in the open air', there is nothing natural about two kids (unfettered by the bonds of society from their early years) subscribing to marriage and traditional role-playing." Gary Arnold of The Washington Post similarly called the film "a picturesque rhapsody to Learning Skills, Playing House, Going Swimming, Enjoying the Scenery and Starting to Feel Sexy in tropical seclusion." He particularly ridiculed the lead characters' persistent inability to make obvious inferences.

Box office

The film was the ninth biggest box office hit of 1980 in North America according to Box Office Mojo, grossing US$58,853,106 in the United States and Canada on a $4.5 million budget.

The Blue Lagoon was based on Henry De Vere Stacpoole's novel of the same name, which first appeared in 1908. The first film adaptation of the book was the British silent 1923 film of that name. There was another British adaptation in 1949. The 1980 version includes much more nudity and sex scenes than the 1949 version, though far less than the book.

The sequel Return to the Blue Lagoon (1991) loosely picks up where The Blue Lagoon left off, except that Richard and Emmaline are found dead in the boat. Their son is rescued. As Paddy's name is unknown to his rescuers, he is renamed Richard, after his father.

The movie was briefly parodied in a flashback scene of the movie Top Secret! (1984). The Quantum Leap
