A magnificent scene from a lesser known Tom Hanks/Meg Ryan film about the human condition and the search for the meaning of life - Joe Versus the Volcano. This is the Moon rising over the Southwest Pacific Ocean scene. Tom and Meg are stranded on a raft made of the world's finest steamer trunks lashed together - before making landfall on the island that was their original destination. If you have never been on the ocean on a sailboat (or steamer trunks) at night with a warm summer's sky full of stars then you are missing one of life's true memorial experiences.

Storyline:
Joe versus the Volcano is a fable which opens with somewhat surrealistic scenes of the dehumanization of Joe Bank's job and work environment (at a company whose product rather literally screws people) with imagery that seems to have been inspired by the classic film Metropolis. Joe is diagnosed with an incurable disease, quits his dehumanizing job, and accepts an offer to briefly "live like a king, die like a man" - but to fulfill his agreement he must willingly jump into a live volcano on the island of Waponi Woo in order to appease the volcano god. En route to the island, Joe meets a series of interesting characters in NYC and LA, then boards a yacht, captained by Patricia Graynamore. During the voyage Joe and Patricia survive disaster, fall in love, and finally arrive at the island where they face their destiny.
