The Man From Home is a 1922 British drama film directed by George Fitzmaurice, adapted from a play of the same name by Booth Tarkington and Harry Leon Wilson. The story had been filmed before in 1914 by Cecil B. DeMille as The Man From Home. Alfred Hitchcock was credited as a title designer on the 1922 production. The film survives in Netherlands Filmmuseum Amsterdam (EYE Institut). It was shown publicly in September 2015, possibly for the first time since the 1920s, during the British Silent Film Festival at Leicester.
