The actress posted a video montage featuring some behind the scenes footage and images of 15-year-old-Brooke on set. She captioned the video with: "It has been over 40 years (ahem. . . supposedly) since The Blue Lagoon came out…" and she was inundated with comments from fans calling the movie (and Brooke) their favorite.

The iconic 1980 movie is one of Brooke's first claims to fame, after spending years as a child model and starring in 1978's Pretty Baby.
