...normal and wholesome that one of his high school chums was later to recall, "It looked like apple pie and ice cream to me." Roy saw wartime service as a Navy airplane mechanic, then headed west to Hollywood. He had once seen Jon Hall swim across a lagoon in John Ford's South Sea romance The Hurricane, and, as he later told it, said to himself, "I can do that...
Jordan, Minn., is a town of Rockwellian prettiness, nestled amid stands of hardwood trees and rolling bluffs. With its four churches, lagoon park and first-rate public school system, the Scott County hamlet (pop. 2,900), 35 miles from Minneapolis-St. Paul, would seem to be a model American community.

Look for instance at the contract between Third and First Worlds in Blue Lagoon: "Days, I remember cities, Nights, I dream of a perfect place. Days, I dive by the wrock, Nights, I swim in the blue lagoon." Or the mixture of the two worlds in "Langue d' Amour": "And this is not a story my people tell. It is something I know myself...
