I have added more light to these next two pics for a better identification. As the scene is (supposedly) in Tokyo (but filmed in USA with some scenes of Paris) and this car is used as taxi, can be this car a modified (in front part) De Soto Airstream??

Almost looks like a '37 Plymouth except it has a split windshield.

Could be '36 Chevy?

For me it is not an American car but an english 1936 Flying Standard Sixteen.Points of spotting are the grille , front and rear suicide doors, belt molding and prominent highly placed door hinges.

Agreed, typical 'Standard' radiator grille with the pennant/flag top.

Yes, a Standard 16 or 20 (they were the same except for cylinder bore). But it is later than 1936- probably 1937-8, with the later painted grill design. The early grill also tapered to a point at the bottom.

The Flying Sixteen was dropped in 1937 leaving the 1938 Standard Flying Twenty [20BA] (edit) and the Flying Fourteen [14BA] with all suicide doors.

Fourteen /vehicle_1314282-Standard-Flying-Fourteen-1938.html look the best match from the quality of the movie's pictures/
