I thought the ECMA way was to say:

  parent as MovieClip

But I can't really tell from http://wiki.ecmascript.org/doku.php? id=proposals:is_as_to it looks like they changed it to be:

  cast MovieClip(parent)

and AS must be half-way in between.

I am seeing examples in various tutorials which seem to be
type-casting by using the
class name like this:

for (var i=0; i<MovieClip(parent).cells.length; i++) {
    }

It sure  looks like a function call...
