A Friendly Husband is a 1923 American silent comedy film directed by John G. Blystone and starring Lupino Lane, Alberta Vaughn, and Eva Thatcher.

[1][2][3] As described in a film magazine,[4] on a hot summer day Friend Husband (Lane) invests in a camping outfit to be hitched to his trusty automobile and prepares to get his wife Tootsie (Vaughn) and go away for a little vacation.

They all immediately pile into the car and start off for a nice cool place in the country, leaving the husband to walk behind them.

While Tootsie, her mother, and the rest of the family are enjoying the outing, Friend Husband is left with all of the work.

The mischievous younger brother of the wife insists on playing with the buttons and beds, chairs, and tables that work off hinges swing wildly through the air.
