 I would say it is a Citroën C6 based hearse.

The small image shows a C6G from 1932 with a slightly different rear body.

 Good find!. I know the picture in Alexander´s post for years, but I wouldn´t have recognized such a car here. Anyway, coachbuilder appears undetectable.

 Renamed to Praga according comment made on movie page by Cinemart.

 Some sort of proof would be nice before renaming.

The Praga Grand (1927-32) comes close, but I don't like the sideline under the window.

 Well, Cinemart seems to work on movie sets, as he already provided previously many info on the cars themselves used in French movies involving old cars, that's why I believed what he said.
Edit: well actually I think I mixed him with another member, as he did not post so much :think:

 He could be right, but I never trust comments without any reference that I can cross-check. If it is a Praga it quite certainly is a Grand. The others (Mignon, Alfa) are shorter.

@Animatronixx: Ingo, hast Du irgendetwas über Praga in Deiner Sammlung was passen könnte?

Leider habe ich ganz wenig Material über Praga / Unfortunately I have very little information on Praga hearses. At least coachbuilder "Brožík a synové" (= Brožík & Sons) of Pilsen/ CZ is mentioned to have built at least one hearse body on Praga chassis around 1926/27, that allegedly looked very similar to the famous Kovap scale model http://skubi.cz/catalog/images/kovap0604.jpg. I have never seen the original car, but it could probably be the one shown here.

 Finally solved: It's a 1928 Pohřební vůz, indeed coachbuilt by Carrosserie Brožík of Plzeň, CZ.
