is it by any chance GODFATHER 2...coz it won the oscar like its first version
see ya...and here's one frm me....

just identify frm which NOVEL are these opening lines????

"The gate was packed with weary travelers, most of them standing and huddled along the walls because the meager allotment of plastic chairs had long since been taken.Every plane that came and went held atleast eighty passengers, yet the gate had seats for only a few dozen........."

well its a new book by this author ( were untypical of him).....
bye

Well a question by a Shubham can only be answered by another Shubham :P
The answer is Godfather, It is the only movie to have a best movie oscar winner sequel.
