What have you tried? Is your DVD NTSC? Have you read this section of the 
docs?
http://www1.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/HTML/en/menc-feat-telecine.html

Offhand, I would suggest you try adding '-ofps 24000/1001', but there 
are other factors that could affect how well that works. Check that 
documentation section for the particulars.
