I found this searching the web.  This is according to Vietnam Insight, which
appears to be an anti-Vietnam government organization:

"Eddie Adams' photo of the prisoner, grimacing as he was shot, won a
Pulitzer Prize for the Associated Press. NBC also showed film of the
execution."

So, there may well be a film of the execution, if you trust the obituary
they have up for the Saigon National Police Commander, Nguyen Ngoc Loan
