Hi Diddle Diddle is a 1943 American comedy film made in directed by Andrew L. Stone and starring Adolphe Menjou, Martha Scott, Dennis O'Keefe, June Havoc, Billie Burke, and Pola Negri.

The film features animated portions from Leon Schlesinger's studio with the fast moving screenplay frequently breaking the fourth wall.
