No, Star Wars a.k.a. A New Hope is currently [April 2018] the thirteenth highest grossing movie domestically.
Star Wars The Force Awakens, however, is the highest grossing movie domestically.
Technically, it was Revenge of the Sith. However, if inflation of the dollar is taken into account, then by far it is A New Hope. In fact, A New Hope would be second on the All Time list in Gross Domestic Profit.
Episode IX: A New Hope grossed the most worldwide.
Episode 1: The Phantom Menace made the most at $924.3 million worldwide (unadjusted for inflation)

My answer to your question is that home alone made the most money because it got 6 Oscars and sold out the night it first appeared in theaters.
The original Star Wars movies were the most profitable series of movies. Star Wars brought in a total of $797,900,000 worldwide.
Most larger budget films go to Cinema because of their potential to make money and their fan base. Really, its thanks to Cinema that big films can be made, as their are too many risks involved just releasing a 12million dollar film on DVD, which people may not buy. Also, cinema is an experience, as you are far more likely to go out with friends to the cinema than to go watch a DVD with mates. The main stars wouldn't be to happy on a DVD for all their hard work either. Unless your Steven Segal.
