Could that just happen though without any outside force to cause it?

I played another film afterwards and it only did it once in a scene with a lamp in it, other than that the rest was fine, the picture on it is still excellent, the fact that it comes and goes would it more likely be a component failure rather than the CRT itself, if it was the shadow mask would the fault not be constant and affect all scenes rather than just bright scenes?
