Hello guys,
sadly chances are zero that this footage will ever see the light of day in better quality. The original negatives are lost and there were no copys.
I know the footage is pretty crappy but there has to be
a chance to make it look better.:

Of course it has to be cropped and resized to 1,78:1 to make it fit to the main movie but this is not my question.

The questions are which filters I should use to remove the roughness and restore as much as possible of the original colors. The drop outs are probably irreplaceable but those are luckily only in 2 of the many scenes.

The original blu ray scene I want to splice this scene after the remastering in looks like this: https://uploadfiles.io/1ad8ngqa

Any help is much appreciated
Thanks a lot
