Using variables in Django URLs?

Question

Is it possible to use URLs like this Django -

url(r'^movie/(?P<id1>\d+)/forum/(?P<id2>\d+)/$', "movies.views.show_comments", name='comments'),

This is my view -

def show_comments(request, id1, id2):

This is the template -

<a href="{% url 'comments' object.pk f.pk %}"><h4>{{ f.topic }}</h4></a>

But when i go to the url, it doesn't call the view function, it just reloads to the same page. What am i doing wrong?

My other URL-

url(r'^movie/(?P<id>\d+)', "movies.views.show_detail", name='detail'),

was incomplete, i had to put /$ after it. So it should be like this-

url(r'^movie/(?P<id>\d+)/$', "movies.views.show_detail", name='detail'),
