When The Lords of Flatbush was released in 1974, Sylvester Stallone was still an unknown actor polishing his screenplay for Rocky, and Henry Winkler was approaching TV superstardom as "Fonzie" in the first season of Happy Days.
As for their costar and diminutive fourth "Lord of Flatbush," Paul Mace appeared in only one more movie after this (Stallone's Paradise Alley), and was killed in a 1983 traffic accident at the age of 33.
Circa 1957, in the Flatbush section of Brooklyn, New York where four high school seniors are the self-styled members of a group calling themselves The Lord's Of Flatbush.

Trivia: The title on screen is actually a shot of the back of the jacket of one of the gang members, and the ungrammatical "The Lord's of Flatbush" is exactly how it is rendered, to show that these guys may be lords of Flatbush, but they're not lords of English grammar.
from Washington, DC Way before the Fonz, way before Rocky, there was this small film known as the Lords of Flatbush.
Set in the 50's it follows 4 guys who belong to "a social athletic club" known as the Lords (Flatbush being an area of Brooklyn).

As such, it's possible that TLOF may have been shot prior to Winkler's acquisition of the Fonzie part and that the producers of Happy Days were aware of his work in the film, but it seems unlikely; indeed, it's even possible that Winkler got the role of Butchey due to his work on TV.
Whatever the case, TLOF has remained a better known film than it otherwise might because of this connection, plus the presence of another soon-to-be-famous actor in the cast, a pre-Rocky Sylvester Stallone.

 DVD Verdict Review - The Lords Of Flatbush
A review snippet inside the flyer for this disc calls The Lords of Flatbush "an engaging, unpretentious film." This 1974 movie was following a wave of 1950s nostalgia that resulted in the popular sitcom "Happy Days." Originally an independent low budget vehicle, Columbia bought the rights and made a then astonishing $16 million with it.
The four Lords who are the stars of the show are crude, unredeeming characters for most of the movie.
Even in 1974 it was far more than a stretch to cast these actors in a high school role as well; since they were all in their mid to late twenties.

 The DVD Journal | Quick Reviews: The Lords of Flatbush
Writer-director-producer Stephen Verona's low-budget 1974 The Lords of Flatbush has become a cinematic curiosity over the decades, as well as a reliable rental item for video-store proprietors, as two American pop-culture icons can be seen in this small indie film just a few years before they hit the big-time.
But, while an appealing tale about a tight-knit group of friends in 1950s Brooklyn, The Lords of Flatbush has several drawbacks — artistic and technical — that keep it from being a cinematic discovery, and instead relegate it as a cinematic footnote.
