Too numerous to mention all, Cord songs have appeared in all of the above genres including the blockbuster feature films, Pearl Harbor and Memoirs of a Geisha. In 2011, The Descendants starring George Clooney, became the first mainstream American movie scored exclusively with Hawaiian music, most of it created by acknowledged masters of the genre, both modern and classical. The filmmakers sought to make a movie with a distinctly Hawaiian flavor, and the music was a crucial component. It serves as an eye-opening introduction to some of Hawaiian music's greatest and most essential artists. The film score and soundtrack featured music from the Cord International Catalog and stood at #1 on the Billboard World Chart for several weeks. The film was nominated for an astounding 200+ industry awards including a Grammy from the National Academy of Recording Arts & Sciences for Best Compilation Soundtrack for Visual Media. In 2015 a number of works from the Cord International Catalog were chosen for inclusion in Cameron Crowe's feature film Aloha starring Bradley Cooper, Emma Stone, Rachel McAdams, and Bill Murray.
