Name of an 80's movie?

Question

I need help remembering a movie from the 80s

I don't think I saw the whole thing. I was a young child in the 80s

I just remember it was a drama.. I think it was supposed to be inspirational and sad. The main character I remember is a boy who I think has a hard life (But don't remember details)

all I remember is at the end (might have been the only part I saw) the ending scene has stayed with me all these years

In the ending scene, his a mother enters her son's room and finds he has died in his sleep. She goes over to a map on his wall and starts putting in (or taking out) these pins in the map and says something like "Now you can go anywhere you want to."

That's all I remember.

Can anyone tell me the name... and is it a good movie? I like inspirational dramas.. is this one worth my time? (That is, if someone knows what movie this is.)

Mask - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0089560/

It starred Cher and Eric Stoltz as Rocky Dennis, a young deformed boy whose dream it was to travel the world on motorcycles with his best friend.

The pins represented the places he wanted to visit on his roadtrip. It was a *fantastic* film.
