I respectfully disagree that they are soft.  If you ignore the "softness" of the movie, and look more closely at the fine details of the image, it is very sharp.  There is some print damage on the frame and you can see it clearly.  I don't think a 4K, 10K or whatever is going to get much more out of it.  It is what it is.

 

I was looking at the print damage too and got the impression it could possibly be sharper. Also I was looking for the grain structure but that sample is probably to compressed to determine that. I feel the grain is very important to capture/preserve as it is random from frame to frame and thereby can contain/reproduce more detail when film is played and the grain pattern gets 'temporal added up' (so to speak).

Still team -1 efforts and results are amazing no question there.
