What movie was it?


The Apple TV+ subscription only includes Apple's original content. It does not include movies or shows from other studios or producers.


See here for a complete list of content covered by the subscription: link-> Apple Original Content


Or look for the AppleTV+ icon on the corner of the item which signifies its part of the subscription.

Your subscription is for Apple TV + 

Apple TV + is Apple Original content. It’s a channel found within the Apple TV App. The shows included in your subscription will have the tv+ logo on them - those are free with your subscription 


There are other channels and iTunes content (Movies, TV Shows) in the TV App that requires payment - in other words there is no Apple TV Plus App. It’s free Apple TV Plus not free Apple TV.
