Both wrong.
Inline engine, not radial, and a flat tombstone engine facing, not the rounded fairing on the Stampe.
Weird, honestly.
But, it is possible they 'modified' parts of the aircraft.
The cockpits were rounded, not the square sides, and as mentioned they had the tombstone engine facing.
*snort*
Gotta love trying to track down aircraft!

This is all I can find. :-(
High Road to China (Warner 1983, 105m) D: Brian Hutton. Tom Sellick = O'Malley, Bess Armstrong = Eve, Jack Weston = Struts, Wilford Brimley = Bradley Tozer, Robert Morley = Bentik. Screenplay: Jon Cleary, S Lee Pogostin. A pilot is saddled with a spoiled industrialist's daughter on a search for her missing father through Asia that eventually involves them in a struggle against a Chinese warlord. Maltin review: "Low road to escapism, with Selleck (in his first starring feature) as a boozy ex-WW1 aerial ace hired by heiress Armstrong to find her father. Strictly mediocre, with substandard action scenes and the flattest dialogue this side of the Great Wall."
AIRCRAFT: Stampe, DH Tiger Moth.
