thank you very very much for sharing this with us. before i watched the vid, i was thinking "YES! now this would show all those folks out there who had misunderstood him all along "What it means to be Commodore James Norrington." after i watched it, i realized even i hadn't really understood it, and i call myself a 'shipper?.. i am greatly humbled by your insightful work. what mary said above is so right on. i think when i was watching the movie, i was, like most of the audience, desensitized to the carnage aboard the Dauntless. we were removed from the desperation he must've felt right there and then, just the way disney wanted it, because he wasn't the main character here.. but you bring justice to this; you show us how he must have truly felt - alone, even amidst so many fellow soldiers, because of the responsibility and the lives of those men he shouldered. you are brilliant!
