The Ten Gladiators, or, as I like to call it, 'The Search for Rome's Shortest Tunic'

It is clear from the opening credits that this will be a film with unattractive, unshiny, unoiled men in very short tunics.

And whether they want it or not: I am dedicating this as a birthday picspam to kalliopeia, lezopez (belated though it is) and caerbannog

( Click for even shorter tunics, grainy pictures, and THRILLING scenes of manly endeavour )

Save yourselves while you can: I have 48 of these things still to view
