Our third Margaret Sullavan Acteurist Oeuvre-view episode features another odd juxtaposition:\xa0Next Time We Love\xa0(1936), a melodrama of ideas that pairs Sullavan with Jimmy Stewart for the first time; and\xa0The Moon's Our Home, a (flat) screwball comedy in which\xa0she co-stars with ex-husband Henry Fonda (1936). We do some deep reflecting on love, gender roles, and human potential, and try to get a grasp on the Sullavan persona.\xa0
