Joe Aguirre: what do you think of this character as portrayed in the movie?
Artiste:
Did we find out if Jack worked alone that 1st year ?

I don't know, but my suspicion is that Jack worked with the Basque fellow that delivered the food at the bridge at noon once per week.

I never thought of that! So that's why he said, "It's too early to be sick of beans"!!

I always thought that Aguirre was the society at large. The people that have the rights to condemn them for their actions, and take away
their livelihood for their transgressions, ie their gayness. He could spy on them without impunity like a peeping tom, because he was looking
out for the moral stability of "society."
He could be sure that society was protected from those fags.
If he had been spying on regular folks, then he might have been called a pervert. But if it was a gay couple, well!

that´s how I see it too. His function in the story is to embody the threath to Jack and Ennis.
