Wiki.
Hi Diddle Diddle is a 1943 American comedy film made and directed by Andrew L. Stone and starring Adolphe Menjou, Martha Scott, Dennis O'Keefe, June Havoc, Billie Burke, and Pola Negri. The title is a play on the nursery rhyme "Hey Diddle Diddle" and the use of diddle as a word for confidence trick. The film features animated portions from Leon Schlesinger's studio with the fast moving screenplay frequently breaking the fourth wall.
This film is in the public domain. It's also known as Diamonds and Crime (American reissue title).
Leslie Halliwell in the seventh edition, (page 463), of 'Halliwell's Film Guide' says it was "AKA 'Try and Find It' ".
