public class Movie

    [Display(Order = 2)]
    public string Name { get; set; }

    [Display(Name = "Movie Director", Order = 1)]
    public string Director { get; set; }

    public int? Released { get; set; }

Note that OrderColumns() only works on Columns added via AddColumnsForModel(). Columns that are added manually are not re-ordered.
