Film needs to be restored


TCM showed this for Christmas although really an Easter story. The film began in pristine condition then when the scene switched to Palestine entering Jerusalem, the film had white dirt spots. The spots continued through the scene in Cana then suddenly disappeared during the end trial scene. Why can't a classic be restored? The color was perfect but too much dirt. Is the DVD also full of dirt spots? MGM's King of Kings was perfect; no spots and great color.

I got the 1080 bluray and it looks like it was filmed yesterday ?

Just watch the Blu-ray version. The film has been lovingly restored and remastered.
