Free guess:

Mel Brooks
"Comedy is a weird but very beautiful thing. Even though it seems foolish and silly and crazy, comedy has the most to say about the human condition. Because if you can laugh, you can get by. You can survive when things are bad when you have a sense of humor."

(Fortunately, Brooks' birth name Kaminsky also does not have an e.)

Well done, Jamie!

Sorry, I exhausted all the possible best film, best director, best actor and best supporting actor qualifiers.

Well done.
