The 2015 Hollywood awards season has been all about Julianne Moore (she's already won a Golden Globe and a SAG Award for her performance in Still Alice).

But Moore's Still Alice co-star Kristen Stewart has just accomplished something no American actress has done for the past 30 years! So what's the big honor not even Moore has been nominated for?

The 24-year-old actress received a 2015 César Award nomination for her supporting role in the indie flick Clouds of Sils Maria (the Césars are the French equivalent of the Academy Awards).

The last American actor to receive a nomination and win at the César Awards was Adrien Brody. Brody took home the award for Best Actor in 2003 for The Pianist.

K.Stew's Sils Maria co-star Juliette Binoche was also nominated. Clouds of Sils Maria stars Stewart as the assistant of an aging film star looking for a comeback (Binoche).

The 2015 César Awards will take place Feb. 20 in Paris, two days before this year's Oscars.
