Howard Lutnick is known best by reputation, for being a ruthless competitor, even by Wall Street’s cutthroat standards.
Those who know Mr. Lutnick, chief executive of bond trading house Cantor Fitzgerald, also agree that he is an incredibly complicated person, and that side of him is explored in a new documentary on Cantor and its comeback from the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center on Sept. 11, 2001.
The film, “Out of the Clear Blue Sky,” tracks Mr. Lutnick’s public journey from victim to villain and back again…
The firm’s story is well known, but “Out of the Clear Blue Sky” — which weaves together interviews with Mr. Lutnick, family members of those who were killed, home video and rarely seen clips of Cantor executives from the months after the attacks — draws Mr. Lutnick out in a way that has not been seen before publicly.
