    user = User.objects.filter(user =user.username)
    return render_to_response('user_page.html',"user":user,context_instance=RequestContext(request))

Answer 1

from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from django.shortcuts import get_object_or_404

def user_page(request, username):
    user = get_object_or_404(User, username=username)

    return render_to_response('user_page.html',{"user":user},context_instance=RequestContext(request))
