«El signo de la cruz» is the film by Cecil B. DeMille (1932), starring Fredric March, Elissa Landi and Claudette Colbert, on DVD.
In Nero's ancient Rome, the film recreates the burning of the city and the turning of Christians into scapegoats to justify their persecution. Adapted from Wilson Barrett's play, it features Claudette Colbert as Poppaea and Charles Laughton as Nero, and stands out for its erotic atmosphere and rawness predating the censorship code.

For admirers of Cecil B. DeMille and historical epic cinema about Romans.
