Yvonne Lime was born in April 7, 1935. She's daughter of a music teacher who encouraged her to study acting. After attending the Pasadena Playhouse and acting in its production of "Ah, Wilderness!," Lime attracted the notice of an agent who landed her a recurring part on TV's Father Knows Best (1954). The blonde actress appeared in many television shows and movies of the era, including Elvis Presley's Loving You (1957) and AIP's I Was a Teenage Werewolf (1957) (co-starring as title character Michael Landon's girlfriend). She later married TV producer Don Fedderson (The Millionaire (1955), My Three Sons (1960), Family Affair (1966)) and retired from acting. According to Lime, one of the most important (and rewarding) parts of her life is her charity work: beginning in the 1950s, while entertaining U.S. troops in Japan, she and her actress-friend Sara O'Meara became concerned with the plight of orphans and took the first steps toward founding International Orphans Inc., an organization that built and maintained four orphanages in Japan, as well as five orphanages, a hospital and a school in Vietnam. Lime and O'Meara later redirected their efforts toward abused and neglected children in the U.S. and changed their organization's name to Childhelp USA. Born

Tony Rivers (Michael Landon) is a bright but troubled teenager with an anger management problem. We first catch him at his small town high school where he’s gotten into a fistfight with his friend Jimmy (Charles Willcox) over a triviality. Police detective Donovan (Barney Phillips) breaks up the fight and recommends Tony see psychologist Dr. Brandon (Whit Bissell), who specialises in hypnotherapy, in order to straighten himself out. But Tony ain’t seeing no shrink, instead he takes out his gal Arlene Logan (Yvonne Lime) to the nearby party shack where he and his rebellious teen friends drink beer, listen to rock music and play bongo drums. When happy-go-lucky Vic (Ken Miller) pulls a prank on him, Tony snaps and beats him, but when in the heat of his rage he shoves Arlene, he realises he must seek help. The next day, Tony visits Dr. Brandon (Whit Bissell), who assures Tony that within a few hypnotherapy sessions, he will be his “true self”. In reality, Dr. Brandon sees in Tony’s unhinged rage the perfect test subject for his new serum — a serum that he hopes will regress Man into his primitive origins. Considering the title of the film, we can all see where this is going.enlace para saber todo sobre la película
