Movie the shack
Why hadn’t it aired on any of the premium channels we have for free in a long time ? It’s a great movie and I’d like to have it on my DVR but look for it weekly and it’s only for rent or purchase now

There's nothing DirecTV can do about that. Perhaps it will eventually show up for general viewing on one of the movie channels.

The "why" is no agreement between owner of movie rights and premium channel. They don't give it away, money has to be negotiated between the two.
Since it sounds like you want more than just a short term rental, buy the DVD (or direct digital download if an authorized store has it). Anything on the DVR you don't fully own as even with the "purchase" option that is only while you have DirecTV (though could still be lost upon a DVR replaced for warranty as recordings do not transfer and no guarantee of available again to download).
