So are you playing different multiple movies or the same movie at
different time indexes?
Or are you playing the same movie in different layers and just want
them in sync (e.g. reflection layer).

If you are talking about the first case, I don't think there is any
way to do this with QTMovieLayers.

If you are talking about the second case (same movie and time), then
as of QuickTime 7.5, you can do this. I blogged about it here and have
sample code (doing reflection layers):
