It isn’t the only copy. The FBI has a copy in their files as well. That means there are at least two copies. Eventually one or the other will need to be copied onto another media since cellulose degrades over time. Then there will be 3 (or more) copies in existence. It is only a matter of time before it gets out.

Has anyone claimed firsthand knowledge that the FBI has any such film in its possession? I smell B.S. all over this claim.

He said he learned of the existence of the film while working on a documentary about Monroe, who died in August 1962 at age 36. A former FBI agent told him about it, and Morgan said he confirmed it by tracking down the son of the FBI informant, who had provided a copy to the FBI.
The late informant’s son had the original while the copy remains classified in the FBI files, said Morgan, whose deal was first reported by the New York Post on Monday.

I saw it. And nowhere is there firsthand knowledge that the FBI has such a film in its possession. Instead, it’s (1) Morgan’s claim from (2) the son of (3) an FBI informant. In other words, third-hand hearsay.
