Last Day of Summer (1958) -- considered an "experimental auteur" flick, but don't let that scare you. It's about a man who meets a woman, and there's no one else in the movie (which I like, too)..

"Hell in the Pacific" is a really cool movie with only two characters (Toshiro Mifune, Lee Marvin), but its a lot of jungle.

A ton of Bergman movies. "Persona" is probably the best movie out of the bunch.

Unfortunately if you google this, you see nothing but stranded movies.

"Father Goose", a movie where Cary Grant plays a beachcomber who just wants to lie around a South Pacific Island, and is disgruntled to have his alcohol-fueled paradise interrupted by WWII. And Leslie Caron, and some schoolgirls.

It's a sweet, fluffy, silly movie, and very funny. Cary Grant is EVERYTHING!!!
