There were several reasons for the existence of movies in the 1950s and television dramas in the 1970s:
1. The production methods of movies and TV series are different. The director was usually the center of the movie, and he was the one who expressed his emotions and thoughts through the lens and images. On the other hand, television dramas were centered around the actors and expressed their emotions and thoughts through their performances and plots. Therefore, the difference in production methods between the movies of the 1950s and the TV series of the 1970s caused them to be produced and developed at different times.
2. Movies and TV series had different audiences. Moviegoers were usually free to choose the content and style of the movie. On the other hand, TV series were targeted at the audience. The audience could choose the content and style of the TV series according to their own preferences and needs. Therefore, movies from the 1950s and TV dramas from the 1970s had different audiences, which led to them being welcomed and loved differently at different times.
3. The copyright protection for movies and TV series was different. The copyright protection of movies was relatively strict. Only within a certain period of time could a movie be legally played. On the other hand, the copyright protection of TV series was relatively loose. They could play TV series at any time. Therefore, there were differences in copyright protection between movies from the 1950s and television dramas from the 1970s, which led to different copyright protection at different times.
To sum up, the reasons for the existence of movies in the 1950s and TV series in the 1970s were the differences in production methods, audiences, and copyright protection. As time passed, the production methods, audiences, and copyright protection of movies and TV series changed. Therefore, you can now see movies from the 1950s but not TV series from the 1970s.
