Trivia
During an interview, Milla Jovovich recalled filming the scene where she had to wake her 19-year-old co-star Brian Krause's character and get him out of bed after he experiences his first sexual dream. She said that to surprise her, they put a piece of wood in his pants to simulate an erection. She saw this and started cracking up so hard she forgot her line.

Goofs
Richard continually beats the shark swimming across the reef. A shark can swim from between 25-45 mph, whereas most Olympic swimmers can only swim about 5mph. He would stand no chance.

Quotes
[last lines]
Lilli Hargrave: There's a baby growing inside me.
Richard Lestrange: How do you know?
Lilli Hargrave: [smiles] A woman knows these kinds of things, that's how.
Richard Lestrange: [excited] Lilli!
Lilli Hargrave: I won't let it be born in civilization. I want it to be born right here. Where there's no evil, and no lies, and no guns.
Richard Lestrange: You're right. We'll stay here. Just the three of us. I love you, Lilli.
[Lilli smiles happily and breezily at him]

Alternate versions
Both the American pan and scan DVD and the European widescreen DVD are reframed to cut out Lilli's breasts in the scene where she's looking at herself in the mirror. The older VHS releases showed her nipples at the very bottom of the screen.

This film rocks!

This film was absolutely beautiful. I can't understand so many people having a problem with it. Everybody says its horrible, why, what is so horrible about it? It made me wanna become more natural and relaxed, knowing that nature is truth and purity while civilization is corruption and a lie. This movie is definitely for Milla Jovovich and Brian Krause fans. Milla's acting seems very inexperienced and like she doesn't care about it, but that actually makes her seem more natural, although I wish she would be more professional. Brian Krause does an average job, but again when you watch the movie the last thing you think about is how the actors act. What gets you the most about this movie is its beautiful message about how a human being should be, beautiful and pure in all ways.I definitely recommend this film.
