Try the "DVD9 to 2xDVD5" (or maybe it's "DVD9 to 2xDVD-R") guide from Doom9 if you don't want to have to re-encode and lose quality. It shows you how to split the movie to 2 discs. Also, depending on how many different audio and sub streams there are, you could use the VOB Extras function of IFOEdit to remove the unwanted streams and see if that makes the movie fit on 1 DVD (but without the special features if there are any).

(I had one yesterday that was about 5.5 gigs with 5.1 audio and a commentary track, no subs. I ripped out the commentary and wound up about 100 megs too big for a DVD-R. Talk about frustrating...)
