First you need to know what film that attracted the Academy's attention was set in Hawaii. Place 2012 Academy Award-nominated movie Hawaii in the search field to get the answer, The Descendants, on the first page. Next, look for movie quotes from that film. Use "The Descendants" movie quotes to come up with a list of pages that might have the information. I used a page on IMDb to find my answer.
