En 'Seguros permanentes Crimson', Terry Gilliam crea un paralelismo entre lo que ocurre en una oficina y una galera con motines y ataques piratas. Cortometraje estrenado en cines, como "telonero" de la película 'El sentido de la vida', y que desde entonces ha llegado al mercado doméstico ligado a ésta, sin formar directamente parte de ella. Fue nominado al BAFTA al mejor cortometraje.
