Running time
Chad Hanna is a 1940 American drama romance film directed by Henry King, and was adapted from a bestseller of sorts that was published that same year.

It stars Henry Fonda, Linda Darnell and Dorothy Lamour.[2]
Plot
In the 1840s, Chad Hanna, a New York country boy working along the canal in Canastota, New York, joins a travelling circus. He falls in love with beautiful bareback rider Albany Yates, but she spurns him. Chad then finds himself attracted to another runaway, country girl Caroline Tridd.
Although everybody assumes that the boy is slow on the uptake, Chad manages to save the circus from financial ruin.[2]
