Communicating between movies

Is there anyway that I can communicate between 2 movies by variables. Such as, let’s say I have a movie called movie1.swf and in it is a variable called “volume”. I load movie1.swf into movie2.swf, can I control the variable “volume” from a button or actionscript in movie2.swf?

That is between java and flash, I just want to be able to control flash variables through other flash files. I’m not sure if i can do it with a loadmovie. Does anyone know if its possible to control a variable through a load movie?
