One movie/book combination that I really love is Gettysburg/Killer Angels (potential tie in to the reading selections on the main page this month). The book won a Pulitzer Prize and the movie set records for DVD sales and on it's TV premier. I saw the movie originally in a theater in Atlanta, Ga. with a packed audience. Any 4 hour movie (it was originally going to be a TV mini-series) that can keep an audience focused is pretty good. There are a few movies, such as Gettysburg, Apollo 13 and The Searchers, that I have watched many times over the years and never failed to be moved by them.
