comment |
The Blue Lagoon is a 1949 British coming-of-age romance and adventure film produced by Sidney Gilliat and Frank Launder and directed by Launder and starring Jean Simmons, Donald Houston, Noel Purcell, Cyril Cusack, James Hayter, Susan Stranks, and Peter Rudolph Jones. The screenplay was adapted by John Baines, Michael Hogan, and Frank Launder from the 1908 novel The Blue Lagoon by Henry De Vere Stacpoole. The original music score was composed by Clifton Parker and the cinematography was by Geoffrey Unsworth.The film tells the story of two young children shipwrecked on a tropical island paradise in the South Pacific. Feelings and physical changes arise as they grow to maturity and fall in love. The film has major thematic similarities to the Biblical account of Adam and Eve.Compare the 1980 version with Brooke Shields and Christopher Atkins. |

Anachronism Stew: While Australia was already colonized by the British in 1788, it did not become a major geographical attraction until the 1850s Australian gold rush, which began a full decade after the shipwreck takes place. |

Spared by the Adaptation: In the film, Emmeline and Michael leave the island but succumb to exposure to the ocean, leaving their fate ambiguous. Meanwhile, in the novel, Emmeline, Dick, and Hannah are stranded in a lagoon without oars, with their survival uncertain. The film emphasizes the child's survival, while the novel presents a more dramatic ending, highlighting the characters' precarious situation. |
