It's both a screenshot showing a billboard in the movie which explains why the protagonist is where he is. What's he doing? Do you know the actor? Note the language and you'll get it.

 

[BettyBoo]

Right you are. Thanks for the reminder.

Is he James Belushi?

 

[looker-on]

Is he James Belushi?

No, he's starring in Groundhog Day, too.

Bill Murray?

Correct. Now what's the film?

 

[BettyBoo]

Correct. Now what's the film?

Is it Ghostbusters?

 

[looker-on]

Is it Ghostbusters?

No, it isn't. Note the language on the hoarding.

It is Japanese perhaps. I have only seen a few Bill Murray films.. dont recall any with an Oriental theme. So will pass.
