Why do I have to pay for a movie while on Apple TV free trial?

While on free seven day trial why do I have to pay for an older film.

An Apple TV+ subscription (either a free trial or a paid subscription) allows you to see all Apple TV+ content without additional charges. However, there is other content in Apple TV (without the "+") that is only available for rental or purchase whether or not you have an Apple TV+ susbscription.
