News David Hyde Pierce Is "The Perfect Host" in New Film Due in July Tony and Emmy Award winner David Hyde Pierce stars in the new film "The Perfect Host," a "slippery psychological thriller" that will arrive in theatres July 1.

Written and directed by Nick Tomnay, the motion picture also features Clayne Crawford, Nathaniel Parker, Helen Reddy, Megahn Perry and Joseph Will. "Warwick Wilson (David Hyde Pierce) is the consummate host," according to production notes. "He carefully prepares for a dinner party, the table impeccably set and the duck perfectly timed for 8:30 p.m. John Taylor (Clayne Crawford) is a career criminal. He’s just robbed a bank and needs to get off the streets. He finds himself on Warwick’s doorstep posing as a friend of a friend, new to Los Angeles, who’s been mugged and lost his luggage. As the wine flows and the evening progresses, we become deeply intertwined in the lives of these two men and discover just how deceiving appearances can be."

"The Perfect Host" premiered at the Sundance Film Festival 2010, was screened in competition at the Sitges Film Festival, and was selected for Montreal’s prestigious Fantasia Film Festival.

The film, which has a running time of 93 minutes, is rated R.
