Referencing URLs for other views in Django 1.8 with no arguments -

i working on simple django 1.8 application template referencesa url points view. views class-based generic views.

when attempting load page, following error:

noreversematch @ / reverse 'add' arguments '()' , keyword arguments '{}' not found. 1 pattern(s) tried: [u'$add/$']  <form action="{% url 'movies:add' %}" method="post">{% csrf_token %} 

my app's url.py:

urlpatterns = [     url(r'^$', views.movielist.as_view(), name="index"),     url(r'^add/$', views.moviecreate.as_view(), name="add"),     url(r'^(?p<pk>\d+)/delete/$', views.moviedelete.as_view(), name="delete"),     url(r'^(?p<pk>\d+)/update/$', views.movieupdate.as_view(), name="update") ] 

the template being used:

<table>     <tr>         <td><a href="?sort=title">title</a></td>         <td><a href="?sort=year">year</a></td>         <td><a href="?sort=director">director</a></td>     </tr>     {% movie in movie_list %}     <tr>         <td>{{movie.title}}</td>         <td>{{movie.year}}</td>         <td>{{movie.director}}</td>     </tr>     {% endfor %} </table>  <form action="{% url 'movies:add' %}" method="post">{% csrf_token %}     <input type="submit" value="add movie" /> </form> 

the 2 views in question:

class movielist(listview):     model = movie     queryset = movie.objects.order_by("title", "-year", "director")     context_object_name = "movie_list"     template_name = "movies/index.html"   class moviecreate(createview):     model = movie     fields = ["title", "year", "director"]     template_name = "movies/add_movie.html" 

this strange me since correct url being resolved in template , there no variables expected createview (i think).

1 pattern(s) tried: [u'$add/$'] 

this means regex used include app's urls ends $. works empty pattern such movielist, not non-empty patterns. remove $ in regex , it'll work.
