You can double-click on the imported movie (or any group of graphics 
cells) to animate it.

The Notebook does have animation controls at the bottom of the Notebook 
window (but these are not "normal QuickTime controls"). Note that you 
can change the direction of the animation using the left and right arrow 
keys, c changes to cyclical behaviour and p pauses the animation. the 
number keys change the animation speed.

Cheers,
Paul
