Rojo did not always play gang members in the westerns; in The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, Rojo portrayed the good captain at the Union concentration camp whose leg was being eroded by gangrene. In the film he told Angel Eyes (Lee Van Cleef) that he knew he was systematically torturing and robbing the prisoners, and hoped that before he died, he could amass enough evidence to bring Angel Eyes to trial at a court martial. Rojo died in Barcelona on November 2, 2011.
