Heavy Frame-blending issues- 60i to 24p?

A couple of clips from a rare feature film which is in bad shape here.

I would assume that the film was originally 24p. It's 60i now, and extremely frame-blended. You can see when it cuts from one shot to another, that it takes five or six frames for that transition to happen. I suspect it was filmed by someone off a projector screen - a cam copy. My source is trying to track down an actual 35mm film version, but I don't know if he'll be successful. The trailer is included on this same VHS, and is in slightly better quality, although it needs lots of manual fixes.

What I'd like ideally is for this 60i video to be converted to 24p in a way that lessens the ghosting effect somewhat, and is at least somewhat accurate to what the original frames would have been - smooth rather than jerky.

Some sources are just so bad they can't be 'fixed'. You could go:

Yadif(Mode=1)#or the better QTGMC
Srestore(Frate=23.976)

but it'll still look like crap.
