I've used 35mm film for shots of the moon without any problems. I plan on taking a few longer exposures one day soon but I'm not expecting too much, just doing it for practice while I figure out what DSLR to buy. I think you should make the most of what you've got, and if thats a 35mm SLR give it a go, there's been quite a few good shots taken on 35mm posted here. Just be careful what film you use, some will turn green after a minute or so. I've heard Kodak Ektachrome 200 or Fuji Provia 400f (both slide film) are good but it'd pay to do a bit of research. I've bought a roll of each but probably won't get through them this side of christmas so I won't be able to give you any feedback. For short exposures like the moon almost any cheap negative or slide film would do.
