Regardless, I think a movie director is a good candidate for an “entertainer-like” person

Are you sure it's not Dick Van Dyke? All you have to do is say yes and you're free to escape this madness.

If not I'll find a list of directors and ask if he's on it 😉

Yes, I could find him on at least one of the sub-lists which can be obtained via the lists on that page.

This one is quite hard, although the person I have chosen is very famous.

I will add one clue / clarification. While he is not an actor or filmmaker, he has made cameo appearances in at least two motion pictures, as himself.

I'm an experienced Diplomacy player, but new to this site. I just wanted to say thanks for the nice distraction. I enjoy trolling these threads.
