John Early - Food Influencer Culture Meets 80s TV Movie in “Maddie’s Secret” | The Daily Show

Writer, director, and star of the new movie “Maddie’s Secret,” John Early stops by to talk to Jordan Klepper about making his directorial debut with a movie that walks the unique line between melodramatic homage, ironic wink, and sincere emotion. He shares how the film is playing to the tropes and style of 80s TV movies, especially a cult classic called “Kate’s Secret,” what tickles him about food influencer culture, and why he was totally justified in incorporating an emotional dance sequence. #DailyShow #JohnEarly #MaddiesSecret Subscribe to The Daily Show:    / @thedailyshow   Follow The Daily Show: Twitter:   / thedailyshow   Facebook:   / thedailyshow   Instagram:   / thedailyshow   Stream full episodes of The Daily Show on Paramount+: http://www.paramountplus.com/thedaily...
