its stating that there is something wrong with the engine variable... I cant find it

it's asking me if I have all the needed details in the engine variable, and I do. not sure what is wrong.

models.py 
from sqlalchemy import create_engine
from sqlalchemy.ext.declarative import declarative_base

engine = create_engine('sqlite:///movies.db', echo = False)
Base = declarative_base()
class Movie (Base):
    __tablename__ = 'movies'
