Your input is yuv422p10, thus use format filter before
pullup/fieldmatch to get proper results.

Pullup and fieldmatch internally works only with 8 bit depth formats,
(fieldmatch additionally supports post processing input that can be
used to get back 10 bit output)

thus -vf format=yuv422p,pullup .... is one possible processing version.

Otherwise, yuv420p is picked and pullup/fieldmatch get yuv420p
processing of auto inserted scale filter which is not aware that input
is telecined, and messes up the chroma plane when downsampling to
worse quality pixel format.
