This ties into gmw's comment; my nomination, Elmer Gantry was longish and also a terrific book made into a terrific movie, but the film did just tell the first chunk of the novel.

How long would be considered to be too long? I would say 500+ pages is too long. I might go with 400-450 pages be the top end.
