Joe Aguirre: what do you think of this character as portrayed in the movie?
Kd5000:
At 1:29 seconds on this Youtube trailer,
I think we see the Grease Monkeys that Aguirre had confided in. Of course, the trailer could possibly be out of order, but as I had posted earlier, a scene was edited out when Jack leaves Agurre's trailer for the last time and two grease monkeys are watching him. This image was not in the movie.
Artiste:
Thanks melb_boy88 and thanks Kd5000, and thanks to all too!!
Melb_boy88, yesterday I wanted to write about that 10 minutes too, as I had read that two days ago which bewildered me!! Why would Aguirre, according to Annie's writing, see Ennis and Jack fooling around for that length of 10 minutes time, until they zipped their jeans??
So is Aguirre straight, gay, bi, or other? Hard to say!! Straights (men) like to see two women get it on, but does not about two men since they get angry or violent about that even as a thought!!
Did I say before that I had thought that Aguirre was something?? Maybe Aguirre was infatuated with Jack?? Dare I ask!! ??
......
Kd5000, I just saw that clip, but do not find 2 grease monkeys looking at Jack?? Can you find that? Are you DozerBoy25? Or Kd Lang?
That clip always makes me sad. I become even sader the more I play it (dozens plus varied months)! Wonder why? I wonder why!! At least, Aguirre does not make me sad in this clip (trailer)!!
.....
Hugs, hugs!! May all Aguirres be as kind to gay men and to straights and to bis, and to others on this Earth to make it a Happy place for all mankind!!

They believed themselves invisible, not knowing Joe Aguirre had watched them through his 10x42 binoculars for ten minutes one day, waiting until they'd buttoned up their jeans
What kind of homophobic man would watch to men have sex for ten minutes?
He didn't have to, he could of rode off and and came back another time. But he didn't he watched them.
My opine is that theres more to this Joe character than meets the eye,
What do you think?
--- End quote ---
One of the reasons he watched the boys could be that he wanted to know why his herder was in base camp and not with the sheep. Why was Jack, who he had hired to be the herder, down at base camp with Ennis? Joe watched until he saw Ennis saddle up and ride up to the sheep. Joe continued watching and saw that Ennis knew how to be a good sheep herder so he was at least relieved to see that. Lets not forget that the "Brokeback" experience for Aguirre was one of financial loss or gain, he should have inspected the performance of his hired hands, in fact I think that he needed to pay unscheduled visits a lot more. His investment in the 1000 sheep was in the hands of the boys.
Was there another type of curiosity on the part of Aguirre? We'll never know.
Artiste:
Thanks brokeplex!!
But Aguirre watched Ennis and Jack during ten minutes during sex Ennis and Jack were having as a couple??
Lucky him? Dare I state?
Hugs!! Happy New Year full of joys to you and to all, to Aguirres too!!
brokeplex:
what is your point Artiste? he stared at them from up on a mountain ridge because he wanted to see if one of them would stop the nookies and go care for his sheep. was he also titilated to see two men together having sex. maybe, we'll never know.
