Curtis has an odd gaping grimace (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rictus

(Other definitions for rictus that I've seen before include "A fixed gaping grin" , "Death grin or sustained gaping" , "Rustic (anag) -- gaping grimace" , "Gape of open mouth" , "Fixed grimace, in horror" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
