Mad Youth(aka: Girls of the Underworld)
"Victims of their own Hormones "

-- Synopsis:
    Exploitative gritty drama about middle-aged Mrs. Lucy Morgan (Betty Compson,) who is an Alimony Divorcee, gigolo-chasing playgirl Mom trying to steer her delinquent daughter Marian (Ainslee) clear of the fast lane however she falls in with an unsavory crowd and ends up working in a clip joint. Things go array when both Ainslee and her mother find themselves both in love with the same sleazy gigolo Count DeHoven (Willy Castello.)

* Features:
    Some of the dance scenes were filmed at the La Golondrina Café in Los Angeles. Betty Atkinson does some very good Tap dancing as well as Shag and Hollywood Jitterbug dancers Ray Hirsch and Patti Lacey and others take to the apartment floor. This film shows making out, Marijuana smoking and Strip Poker.
