LIHUE >> The Kauai Visitors Bureau plans to track the effect of a Golden Globe-winning film on the island’s tourism industry.

Scenes from “The Descendants” were filmed on Kauai and Oahu. In the movie, George Clooney stars as a land baron who tries to reconnect with his daughters after his wife suffers a boating accident off Waikiki.

The Garden Island reported Tuesday that the bureau will track the film’s effect on tourism through the year. Executive Director Sue Kanoho says the bureau has been able to tie tour­ism with previous movies filmed on the island. 

Roberts Hawaii, which offers a Kauai movie tour, says it has added a stop at Tahiti Nui, where Clooney’s character shares a drink with his cousin, played by Beau Bridges.
