nandub with a decent de-interlacing filter such as 'de-interlace are based' from gunnar thalin or 'telecide 1.1' from donald graft will be the best possible choice!

If you're going to use nandub, you're going to need to framserve as well (Nandub cannot directly read DVD files). vFAPI and Avisynth are good choice. :)

One note. If you are working with an originally FILM material that has now been converted to NTSC (30fps), you can do Inverse Telecine as well. Doom9 has just the guide for it so go there and look. Most of the time, interlacing artifacts will be completely removed. It is a joy never having to use a Deinterlacer. :)
