Maui: Any place George Clooney lands has a certain sex appeal, but in this case, Hawaii had a lot to offer before Clooney descended here for "The Descendents," nominated for Best Picture. The story of heartache set in paradise follows Clooney as he works to rebuild his family. While the movie has a depressing undertone, the views of Hawaii are the ultimate pick-me-up. From the Hawaiian music to the flowering trees and the stunning seascapes, it's hard not to find yourself daydreaming about the islands.
