I would expect that the biplane is Russian, as they provided quite of bit of material to the Chinese (both Nationalists and Communists).

Very probably it is a Polikarpov I-153.
It might be an I-15bis, but I doubt they were still in active service in China when the Oscar began operations.
The former has a seagull upper wing and retractable landing gear, the latter straight wing and fixed gear: I don't think the movie is clear enough to distinguish the right model.
Anyway it's a great little movie, thank you for posting it here, Brady.
