In the movie The Blue Lagoon?!
Question: Were they brother and sister?
Answers: Were they brother and sister?
The opening line of the script reads:
"Richard and Emmeline Lestrange are two eight-or-nine-year-old cousins on a ship bound for San Francisco with Arthur Lestrange, Richard’s father (Emmeline’s uncle). They are sitting on the bowsprit of the ship."
In the opening dialog:
"ARTHUR: Richard! Emmeline! Come back here, this minute, and be careful. What’s gotten into you Richard? Bad enough to endanger yourself, but to encourage Emmeline?
RICHARD: I’m sorry, Father.
ARTHUR: I know you want to have fun. All I’m trying to do is get us all to San Francisco in one piece.
RICHARD: Will Mommy be coming to San ‘Forisco’?
ARTHUR: I don’t believe so, Richard.
EMMELINE: I told you! Once they go to heaven, they don’t come back. Isn’t that right, Uncle Arthur? My mommy and daddy haven’t come back. "
I seem to remember near the beginning of the movie that it was mentioned that they were cousins.
No , they were actually cousins
