Django why the pagination is not working?

Sorry because of the dumb question. I am reading a tutorial from book called build django 2 web application. and I get to the pagination topic but I can't get why it does not working even when I am copy-pasting carefully. 

{% if is_paginated %}
<nav>
  <ul class="pagination">
    <li class="page-item">
      <a href="{% url 'core:MovieList'%}?page=1" class="page-  link">First</a>
    </li>
    {% if page_obj.has_previous %}
      <li class="page-item">
        <a href="{% url 'core:MovieList' %}?page={{page_obj.previous_page_number}}" class="page-link">{{page_obj.previous_page_number}}</a>
      </li>
    {% endif %}
    <li class="page-item active">
      <a href="{% url 'core:MovieList' %}?page={{page_obj.number}}" class="page-link">{{page_obj.number}}</a>
    </li>
    {% if page_obj.has_next %}
      <li class="page-item">
        <a href="{% url 'core:MovieList' %}?page={{page_obj.next_page_number}}" class="page-link">{{page_obj.next_page_number}}</a>
      </li>
    {% endif %}
    <li class="page-item">
      <a href="{% url 'core:MovieList' %}?page={{paginator.num_pages}}" class="page-link">Last</a>
    </li>
  </ul>
</nav>
{% endif %}

#View
class MovieListView(ListView):
    model = Movie
    template_name = 'movie_list.html'

You haven't set the paginated_by attribute in the view class, so the contents won't be paginated.

class MovieListView(ListView):
    model = Movie
    template_name = 'movie_list.html'
    paginate_by = 5
