Solution 2

Right click on controller(folder) -> click on Add Reference -> click on project tab -> and select folder in which your movies.cs file is kept.
Try this and tell me whatever the result will be..

Solution 3

First add a reference for model in the controller :
ex:

C#

using MVCapplication1.Models;

here MVCapplication1 is the application nameand be sure that the class you want to access is present under Models folder.
then create an instance of the model class, using the instance dot property name can be accessed.
try this

Sorry man i am not getting it, if you want to learn the mvc applications then why don't you try some other samples. Adding a controller as shown in this example i am not getting.

My suggestion is to proceed with simple examples such as:
http://codesamplez.com/development/introduction-to-asp-net-mvc3-and-razor-in-c-sharp
and
http://weblogs.asp.net/shijuvarghese/archive/2011/01/06/developing-web-apps-using-asp-net-mvc-3-razor-and-ef-code-first-part-1.aspx
