The back end looks Gordini-ish.  French perhaps?

It's not an Aston Martin..

..but it is a French marque; not a Gordini though.

So I studied French things in greater detail.
The car looks surprisingly similar to the Renault Fregate Coupe by Motto-Rosier, but this image has lights in a straight line across the front rather than the staggered approach of the MR Coupe.
If not another Renault, both Simca and Talbot made a handful of very shapely coupes.
