The Moon's Our Home

The Moon's Our Home is a 1936 American comedy film directed by William A. Seiter and starring Henry Fonda, Margaret Sullavan and Walter Brennan. It was adapted from a novel of the same name written by Faith Baldwin and first published in serial form in Cosmopolitan magazine.

Plot
New York novelist Anthony Amberton meets up with actress Cherry Chester. The two date and later marry, though neither knows of the other's fame. The real adventure begins on the honeymoon, when their relationship heats up with insults and arguments.

Reception
The film recorded a loss of $111,845.

Writing for The Spectator in 1936, Graham Greene gave the film a good review, describing it as "a trivial charming comedy". Greene praised Dorothy Parker's comedy writing and the acting of Margaret Sullavan and Henry Fonda for providing "the sense of something fresh and absurd and civilized".
