}}Chasing the Moon is a lost[1] 1922 American silent drama film directed by Edward Sedgwick and starring Tom Mix. It was produced and released by the Fox Film Corporation.[2]

Plot

As described in a film magazine,[3] Dwight Locke (Mix), the sweetheart of Jane Norworth (Novak), is a pampered son of wealth with so many automobiles, houses, and clothes that he does not know what to do with himself. His hand is accidentally scratched and becomes infected with a deadly poison invented by Milton Norworth (Buckley), who is Jane's brother. A professor with the only antidote for the poison is en route to Russia, so Dwight rushes to intercept him. An attempt is made to kidnap Dwight and hold him for ransom, but he escapes by jumping off a moving train and unmounting a Russian on a passing horse and riding away. In the meantime Jane learns that the poison was in fact harmless, but that the antidote if taken would kill him. She goes to Russia and then follows him to Spain as Dwight attempts to catch up with the professor. When he reaches the professor, Dwight finds him too deaf to understand him. Jane arrives in time to stop Dwight from taking the antidote.
