Datuk Yusof Haslam is a hard man to please. His son, 23-year-old director Syafiq Yusof, knows this only too well. Syafiq has made four films so far (SAM, Abang Long Fadil, Villa Nabila and Mat Moto: Kami Mat Motor Bukan Mat Rempit) under Yusof’s Skop Productions and each time, he found it challenging to get his producer father’s seal of approval.
“I usually show my dad a preview of my movie before it’s released. Each time after viewing, he gives me a list of things I need to change,” Syafiq said during an interview in Petaling Jaya, Selangor.
