Sorry, it's Gandhi. 300,000 extras were used in the funeral scene.

I'd take a stab at Gandhi, especially thinking back on the funeral scene. A touch before the massive CGI era tricks. When they did that pan out, the masses of people was incredible and it didn't look like news or documentary footage.
