Mix the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine crushed pineapple with its juice, instant pudding mix, and sour cream. Stir until fully blended. If using chopped nuts, mix them in at this stage.
Assemble the Pie: Spoon the filling evenly into the graham cracker crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Decorate with Pineapple & Cherries: Arrange pineapple slices on top, placing seven rings around the edge and one in the center. Place a maraschino cherry in the middle of each ring.
