Sign of the Gladiator is also known as Sign of Rome, which maybe makes a little more sense since there isn't a gladiator anywhere in this movie. This is an average Italian peplum film with a better than average cast. The two French giants of the genre, Georges Marchal and Jacques Sernas, are the male leads.
