I had a completely opposite experience in France.
Just get out of Paris, and the people are lovely. I
couldn't even try french, and in the country English
is not as Universal as we Americans like to think.
Lots of pointing, gestures, and pitiful looks of
helplessness got me one of my favorite experiences of
my whole continental Grand Tour: a visit to the home
of a small vintner who faught with the Americans in
WWII and brought out his war medals and such, gave me
his homemade wine, and fed me. It was v. cool.
