let say I want to create a Movie with different actions in each frame. then I want to continually call that one frame action from a button release. How would I go about this?  
Action on frame 1 is:  
\_root.MM.\_x += 5;

Button on stage to trigger this action over and over would be?. I’ve tried gotoandPlay but it only works once  
on (release) {  
\_root.movie. ?  
}
