Good job answering pingpongpeg's question. Maybe you can help me. When I was a kid around 1965 I remember seeing an old afternoon movie about two young kids, a boy and a girl no older than 10 who are put on a plane like an old DC-3 or DC-4 without their parents and then the plane runs into a storm and ends up crashing in a jungle and they have to fend for themselves. There is a scene where they confront a tiger and they scare it off somehow. Then in the end somebody, I think their father, is flying over in a small plane and sees something that alerts him to the kids down there and basically crash lands his plane to get to them. Ring any bells?

Might be Desperate Search

I was looking for the same movie. I finally found it. Took me a while but its called "The Blue Lagoon"

Thanks penguin but it's not The Blue Lagoon. Quinn, Desperate Search looks promising! TCM.com has a short clip of it that I watched and the father has a float plane which I seem to remember his plane being when he crash lands it to get to his kids. Thanks Quinn! Now I just have to find a copy of it lol.

I have a copy of this somewhere, its so bad but I love it! :) It's a movie called True Heart starring Kirstn Dunst and Zachary Ty Brian when they were younger and also the guy who played Randolph in Free Willy 1. Here's a link for it, I'm pretty sure this is the one you are thinking of. Enjoy! http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120381/

Thanks Thornberry, that looks like a pretty good movie but Dunst and Brian weren't even twinkles in their daddy's eyes in 1965. Actually I think Quinn's answer of Desperate Search is the right one. I just have to find a copy of it somewhere. Thanks for answering though.
