Of all the times I have watched that Z film (which I now believe is a "historical drama") I have NEVER seen Connally reach his hand back towards the president...the hand that was allegedly holding a hat and then shot thru the wrist. Dan Rather must have watched a different "historical drama" than the rest of us.
If what Rather says he saw, did really happen (and subsequently edited from Zapruder), then maybe the bullet pased from the rear thru the wrist distal first, exiting the palmar side, then into the back, explaining the tumble upon entry to the back. I guess his arm would have to be mostly bent to line up that trajectory. Much more of a straight path than most others I've heard.
