NOTES Some adult language
Based on Herman Melville's 19th century novel, Pierre is the story of a wealthy landed gentleman who discovers that his past is not the honorable one he has been led to believe it is. Moving from the bucolic Berkshire meadows to teeming New York City, Pierre is a melodrama involving passion, incest, murder, and suicide.

Reviews
"Where Hatcher triumphs is in showing us that no one really knows anyone, and we know Pierre least of all."
--John Moore, The Denver Post
