I've seen the movie and I wasn't a huge fan, though I recognize it as a pretty impressive achievement of its time.
I've not read GwtW but did read some other (supposedly lesser) novels from the same general school of thought and style back in school for a class on the Civil War and popular culture and hated them pretty uniformly.
But I bought The Godfather at lunch today and despite being told that the book is pretty unimpressive the first 100 pages have been very readable in a John Grisham/Stephen King sort of way.
