TMZ.com posted these ten-and-now pics today and it brought back all the memories of Christopher in "The Blue Lagoon" opposite Brooke Shields. He also starred in "The Pirate Movie" opposite another 70s-80s teen star, Kristy McNichol. ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,heaven.jpgBut liked him best when he lost the perm and was on "Dallas" and had a steamy affair with Sue Ellen Ewing (Linda Gray).
