I'm presuming that the movie is in the Cast?

Unless you have a custom handler written for Playmovie, that doesn't
actually exist. You probably want to look at setTrackEnabled in your
Lingo dictionary.

Brief rundown of syntax

setTrackEnabled(sprite whichSprite, whichTrack, trueOrFalse)

Setting it to true will play the movie, setting it to false will stop and
mute the movie.
