Dev Patel did his homework. In front of an eager, humming South By Southwest crowd on Monday night, Patel nervously took the stage at the Paramount Theater in Austin, Texas, where he thoughtfully laid out the many, many influences that went into his directorial debut , Monkey Man . In an earnest monologue, he name-dropped everything from Enter The Dragon to The Raid to the action cinema of Korea and the Bollywood movies his family showed him as a boy.
All of this and more, he explained, fueled his first film as a director, which he also co-wrote and stars in. But it’s one thing to know your influences, and another entirely to put them into practice onscreen while losing none of your own singular voice. For all its many triumphs—and Monkey Man is a film packed with triumphs on a moment-by-moment level—Patel’s film may have found its greatest success in the way it seamlessly, powerfully translates the director’s pure, kinetic love of cinema into something bold, new, and unforgettable. Patel stars as Kid, a bedraggled young man who lives in the slums of India
