Should you see it? Yes, it has it's moments.
“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds."

I Accuse My Parents (1944)
How bad is it? It's by PRC and it's preachy.
Should you see it? Yes, it has it's moments.
Jimmy's parents drink, his mother has interests outside the home and his dad doesn't spend every minute at work (they're devils, I tell ya!) and this is the excuse he uses in court to explain why he followed a showgirl and started doing jobs for her not-quite-legitimate boss and then eventually ended up in deep trouble. It's like a male version of Ed Wood's "The Violent Years" and it's one of the rare terrible films of the 1940's.
Should you see it? Yes, it has it's moments.
