Take the Heir is a 1930 American synchronized comedy sound film directed by Lloyd Ingraham and starring Edward Everett Horton, Dorothy Devore and Edythe Chapman.[1] While the film has no audible dialog, it was released with a synchronized musical score with sound effects and featured a theme song that was sung by an uncredited tenor. The film was produced during the transition to sound film and a separate silent version was also released. Location shooting took place around Broadway. A review in the Motion Picture News considered the film "very, very weak" and a waste of Everett Horton's talents.
