I love a good movie or miniseries.

Months ago, I bought and finished Centennial.
It was quite excellent.

I have also seen Hawaii, The Hawaiians, and Texas.

Are there any other great Michener books made into movies?

I also loved Edna Ferber's Giant.

Bridges at Toko-Ri is supposed to be good. Wikipedia has a complete list of his books and movies.

South Pacific.

A book, then a Broadway musical, then a movie.
