If they have the original rolls of film, and the size and quality of the film is decent, they can scan each individual frame of film into a computer at a high resolution. They then go in, frame by frame, and essentially photoshop color into the picture. They probably have a much smarter/faster process than this but I'd guess this is what they did.

In general, you can take old footage and blow it up to HD resolution - the signal you get is technically hi-definition (1280 x 720 pixels, 60 frames per second) - this is called up-conversion. The quality won't be as clear as a picture that was originally shot in HD, but its better than watching crappy regular TV.

What if it's shot in 35mm? :wink2:
