A dramatization of the accident was part of the film Fat Man and Little Boy, clip below: ▶ this video A little more factual dramatization was presented in the TV show Dark Matters titled "Risky Radiation" but I am unable to locate a video clip atm. link
I wonder if this event will be in the new Oppenheimer movie. I do like John Cusack's rendition: ▶ this video
